Vox remodels the top positions of its candidacy for Congress in Madrid for the next elections.
Renewal at the top of the Vox list for Congress in Madrid. Santiago Abascal places as his right-hand man, at number two, Montserrat Lluís, deputy general secretary of the party and one of the people who exercised the most weight in the negotiation with the PP for the formation of autonomous governments. It was an expected move, given the increasingly relevant role that Lluís has acquired this legislature.
It is at number three on the list where the surprise comes. Vox will compete with its until now spokesperson in Ceuta, Juan Sergio Redondo, as the name in this position, as Abc has announced and party sources confirm to EL MUNDO.
The movement is a clear declaration of intentions, which is in line with the relevance that Vox wants to give to the Ceuta crisis on this road to the polls.

The starting positions for Madrid are completed by the person who has been spokesperson in Congress during this term, Pepa Millán, as number four, and another new face in the Lower House: Cristian Toro.
