History

Coalition

CPG was born after the rupture of People's Coalition in Galicia. The smaller parties of the former coalition joined the Galician nationalist party Galician Coalition, that had just suffered the split of the Galician Nationalist Party[1]. CPG was the third most voted party in the elections, with very good results in the Province of A Coruña. In total, the coalition won 54 mayors and 610 local seats.
