"The BE will not be in parliament, but it will be on the streets with the people every day. The BE is a party that was made on the street", said the candidate at the party's headquarters in Funchal, in reaction to the results of today's vote, in which the BE lost the only deputy it had, thus ceasing to be represented in the regional parliament.
The BE's top candidate said that the party reacted with a mixture of sadness and naturalness to leaving parliament, but recalled that it is the third time that this has happened and that the Bloquistas have always regained representation in the regional Legislative Assembly.
"We will be back", guaranteed the former regional deputy.
Roberto Almada also said that the priority now is the European elections, on 09 June, on which the party will concentrate, from Tuesday.
The PSD won the early regional legislative elections in Madeira today, missing the absolute majority by five deputies, when all the parishes have been counted, according to provisional official data.
According to information provided by the General Secretariat of the Ministry of Internal Administration, the Social Democrats obtained 36.13% of the votes and 19 seats in the regional parliament, made up of a total of 47 deputies.
Last year, in the previous regional elections, the PSD and the CDS-PP, who ran together, elected 23 deputies, so the Social Democrats signed an agreement of parliamentary incidence with the sole deputy of the PAN.
In that election, the Bloco had managed to return to the Legislative Assembly. The party, which has been running since 2004, was left without a representative in the Madeiran parliament in the 2011 and 2019 elections.
Fourteen candidates contested the 47 seats in the regional parliament today, in a single electoral district: ADN, BE, PS, Livre, IL, RIR, CDU (PCP/PEV), Chega, CDS-PP, MPT, PSD, PAN, PTP and JPP.
The early elections took place eight months after the most recent regional legislative elections, after the President of the Republic, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, dissolved the Madeiran parliament, following the political crisis triggered in January, when the leader of the Regional Government (PSD/CDS-PP), Miguel Albuquerque, was made a defendant in a process in which suspicions of corruption are being investigated.
