the congress that Together for Catalonia held last weekend in Argelès-sur-Mer (France) was one of unity, but it did not prevent a bittersweet outcome. Due to the low participation of the militancy in the voting for the new leadership and because two of those leaders were left out of the executive branch because they did not obtain enough support. In general, and despite the fact that the composition of the leadership was agreed between both sectors, the members related to the new president of the party, Laura Borrasgarnered less support than those related to the new secretary general, Jordi Turullwhich irritated the environment of the president of the Parlament.
These were the results of all the votes of the Junts congress.

Who has been left out?
With the previous results, the last three leaders, all related to Borràs, did not reach the minimum number of votes required to form part of the executive. The mosso Torrents and the deputy Vallès were left out of the direction of Junts, who now must find a way out of the mess. In the case of Madaula, although it fell below the bar, it was saved from being burned because the votes of the four vice presidents were counted as a block.
