The republicans decided to convene the executive committee of the party after knowing the decision of the electoral authority and go out with a bang in the social networks to express rejection of the disqualification of the Round as a deputy of the Parliament.

The vice-president of the Catalan government and coordinator of ERC, Pere Aragonès, tweeted yesterday, Friday, with the news of the decision of the Board: "We are with you president, always. All the support to deal with this aberrant decision of the national electoral commission". For his part, the chairman of the party, Oriol Junqueras, also called on the social network "to preserve the Catalan institutions".

The party of Junqueras works in the scenario of that disqualification, as a member of the Round by the Central Electoral Board shall not prosper. However, Aragonès, to questions of journalists, has accepted the possibility that finally the Supreme Court ruling on the case (Torra resorted to that instance after the decision of the Superior Court of Justice of Catalonia), and therefore the political Junts per Catalunya can not continue in office.
