PDECat

PDECat (Partit Demòcrata Europeu Català) was a Catalan political party that ceased operations in September 2023. The party's dissolution followed its failure to secure representation in both the Catalan Parliament and the Spanish Congress, rendering it an extra-parliamentary force. Recent news articles highlight PDECat in the context of Junts (Junts per Catalunya) party's strategy for the 2027 municipal elections. Junts aims to consolidate support by attracting former councilors and members of the now-defunct Convergència Democràtica de Catalunya (CDC), a party with which PDECat shares historical ties. While PDECat itself is no longer active, its legacy and the political figures associated with it remain relevant as Junts seeks to reorganize and strengthen its position in local politics by appealing to the same base of support.
