Toni Valero is emerging as the leading figure for IU within the Broad Front and will only have one rival in the internal primaries.

Izquierda Unida (IU) has commenced its internal primary elections to select its candidate for the upcoming November 29 elections. The process features two contenders: Toni Valero, the coordinator of IU in Andalusia, and Santiago Moreno from Extremadura.

Valero has emerged as the frontrunner and is positioned to become the primary electoral reference for IU within the broader political coalition known as Frente Amplio. His status as the leading figure was solidified as he became the sole heavyweight candidate entering the party's internal primaries, according to sources within the formation.
