A struggling PSPV gains traction in the PSOE, while Mazón's PP breathes with Tellado.

Rebeca Torró will become the fourth Valencian Secretary of Organization of the PSOE, following Ciprià Císcar, Leire Pajín, and José Luis Ábalos. At a low point for Valencian socialism— with a CIS survey conducted before the Santos Cerdán case in which very few saw Diana Morant as an alternative to Carlos Mazón —the PSOE's second federation has been recognized. In a very delicate context for the party, Sánchez entrusts a complicated task to the Valencian leader who emerged with her own voice in Ximo Puig's last government.

Torró's appointment can also be interpreted as recognition of a federation that has demonstrated its total loyalty to Pedro Sánchez's project. While under Puig, the PSPV maintained its commitment to the Valencian path and its vindictive spirit, under Morant, that distinctive profile has disappeared. Now, with the appointment of the former Secretary of State for Industry, it is hoped that the unity of discourse between the PSPV and the PSOE will not be questioned in the slightest.

In fact, the party's three key figures in the Valencian Community are closely linked to Pedro Sánchez. Torró is the new Secretary of Organization; Diana Morant, the General Secretary of the PSPV and candidate for the Generalitat, is a minister in the government he presides; and Pilar Bernabé, the potential candidate for Mayor of Valencia, is the Government Delegate. These are the three women who currently wield the greatest institutional and political power. If the legislature were shortened, the PSPV would have a serious problem.

This dependence on Ferraz and Pedro Sánchez's strategy, as seen during the last session of the Valencian Parliament, could cause the Socialists to run into trouble again when the PP and Compromís parties try to get their nerves in the votes on issues of demand.

In parallel with the PSOE federal committee meeting, the PP is holding its peaceful congress this weekend. As was already evident in the distribution of roles for the preparations for the conclave, the Valencian PP is not expected to play a major role. Following the Dana crisis, it is also going through a difficult time and the leadership of Carlos Mazón is under question. The same CIS survey that placed Diana Morant behind Joan Baldoví in terms of leader ratings also warned that 80% of Valencians (and 60% of PP voters) would like a change in the Presidency of the Valencian Generalitat.

Thus, barring any surprises, the Valencian People's Party (PP) will have no significant representative in the party's new leadership, an absence that will be amplified by the fact that, on the other side, the PSPV now holds the leading role on Calle Ferraz.

However, the Popular Party's ranks are now breathing a little easier following the confirmation that Miguel Tellado will be the party's new general secretary. The Galician leader has been one of the most vocal supporters of Carlos Mazón, even at times when the president of the Generalitat has been under the most internal scrutiny.

Furthermore, Tellado's relationship with the PPCV leaders is good and fluid. However, there's no need to be fooled, as the new secretary general is loyal to Alberto Núñez Feijóo and, if necessary, would carry out any order from his national president.
