The final debate among the three principal candidates for the presidency of Castilla y León, organized by Castilla y León Television, took place on the evening of March 12. This debate was crucial as it precedes the elections on March 15, where voters will determine the future of the Cortes of Castilla y León and the governing Junta. Present were the current president, Alfonso Fernández Mañueco from the Popular Party (PP), alongside newcomers Carlos Martínez from the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) and Carlos Pollán from Vox.

During the debate, each candidate had a minute for opening remarks, which was followed by a series of thematic blocks allowing them to discuss key issues facing the region. This head-to-head gave the candidates the opportunity to outline their party's positions and engage directly with each other's proposals, potentially swaying undecided voters. With the elections just around the corner, such debates are vital for candidates to connect with the electorate and clarify their stances on various issues.

The outcome of the elections on March 15 could signify significant changing dynamics in regional governance, particularly with two candidates contesting their first electoral race for leadership. This debate serves not only as a platform for showcasing candidate qualifications but also as a decisive moment for voters to assess their options before making a choice in the polls.
