Spanish Socialist Workers' Party Of Andalusia
The Spanish Socialist Workers' Party of Andalusia ( es, link=no, Partido Socialista Obrero Español de Andalucía, PSOE–A) is the Andalusian branch of the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party, as well as the largest and most important federation within the PSOE. Formerly known as the Andalusian Socialist Federation (FSA), it was founded in 1977. The party was the ruling party of Andalusia uninterruptedly from 1978 to 2019, having won all regional elections in that time except for the 2012 election, after which it nonetheless was able to maintain the regional government through a coalition with United Left. It lost power for the first time after the 2018 election, when a PP- Cs coalition was formed. In the 2022 election, it worsened its already worst result ever.

All 109 seats in the Parliament will be up for election.
