    • 2021 May 4, Carlos E. Cué, “Ayuso arrasa en Madrid”, in El País:
      La clave de este fiasco es el pinchazo del PSOE, que se deja en menos de dos años buena parte de sus apoyos pese a tener el mismo candidato que en 2019 ganó ampliamente las elecciones en Madrid, Ángel Gabilondo, aunque no pudo gobernar porque el bloque de derechas tuvo más escaños que el de la izquierda.
