While aiming for a simultaneous election with national elections could benefit from negative sentiment towards the national government, it also risks being perceived as a partisan tactic. Furthermore, in regions where the PP governs with Vox, early elections may result in a dependence on Vox for investiture, potentially hindering the PP's ability to form stable regional governments.
