English · Original discussion in Spanish · Published

According to a La Vanguardia poll, Catalan Alliance is tied with the PSC as the leading force in Catalonia. VOX gains seven additional seats, while separatist parties continue to lose support.

## The tie that reshuffles the board

The La Vanguardia poll places Catalan Alliance, led by Sílvia Orriols, on par with the PSC in parliamentary seats. This marks an unprecedented scenario where an identity-focused party matches the governing force of the Generalitat.

## VOX advances, separatists retreat

The same survey grants VOX seven more seats, strengthening its parliamentary group. Meanwhile, separatist parties—Junts, ERC, and the CUP—show a decline. The accompanying analysis suggests separatism is "on the path to disappearance," though polls measure voting intent, not final results.

## Limits of a poll

No poll decides elections. Margins of error exist, and Catalan politics has shifted direction before. This survey highlights a trend: the rise of Catalan Alliance and VOX amid the weakening of the separatist bloc. The ballot box will confirm or refute this landscape.
