El Mundo’s poll for the 2026 elections shows Ayuso losing only two seats, yet on Burbuja.info the debate isn’t about absolute majorities, but whether Madrileños deserve the label of fools. 173 replies in 23 days have turned this question into a thermometer of frustration with Madrid politics.
Votes not bought with seats
While the poll shows Ayuso saving her majority by one seat, forum users argue whether voting for the president is based on conviction or lack of alternatives. A majority sector claims Madrileños are complicit in mass immigration by supporting a party that doesn’t stop foreign arrivals. Others defend that Madrid managed the pandemic best and remains the least bad option compared to the rest. One user summarizes the divide: "Ayuso is the Pedro Sánchez of the right."
Immigration and third-worldization: The real problem
The thread fills with complaints about the "third-worldization" of Madrid, accompanied by tweets and memes showing Ayuso embracing Latin American groups. One user states "Madrid fell long ago," while another responds sarcastically that "115% of Madrileños are fools." Immigration is the debate’s axis: some see it as the origin of decline, others as an excuse to avoid discussing politicians’ management.
Is there an alternative to Ayuso?
Vox appears as the "less bad" option, though some recall that "no active politician can do anything or wants to clean up Spain." The left is barely mentioned, except to be called "disfigured." The debate drifts toward resignation: "We are lost. They have stolen our country forever."
The thread doesn’t resolve if Madrileños are fools, but clearly shows growing dissatisfaction. Meanwhile, Ayuso continues governing with a one-seat margin. Until when?
