History

Marea de Vigo was created as a left-wing "popular unity" candidacy to the municipal elections of May 2015.[1]

It's one of the many "popular unity" candidacies formed by left-wing political parties in Galicia and Spain to the Spanish local elections, 2015; like Marea Atlántica, Ahora Madrid, Barcelona en Comú, Zaragoza en Común or Málaga Ahora.
