Barcelona en Comú faces the municipal elections of 2027 with the challenge of presenting, for the first time, a candidate other than Ada Colau. Gerardo Pisarello, a deputy in Congress and former first deputy mayor, has taken on this role, after winning the primaries against comedian Bob Pop. But, even before choosing a mayoral candidate, the party's new executive began to outline a strategy to improve the results predicted by polls and present themselves to Barcelonians as an alternative to the PSC. According to sources from the leadership, conveyed to el ARA, this strategy involves regaining presence in the Besòs Axis neighborhoods, where they believe they have room to grow and prevent a vote drain towards the far-right.
