Ex-Plaid leader Price facing a fight for re-election

South Wales Evening Post

FORMER Plaid Cymru leader Adam Price faces an uphill battle to be re-elected to the Senedd.

- RUTH MOSALSKI

The Senedd election in May 2026 is being fought under a new system and, with less than a year to go, parties are currently selecting their candidates.

Instead of the current combination of constituencies and regional lists, at the new election there will be 16 constituencies with six people elected to represent each. It means that, from 2026, there will be 96, rather than 60, people elected to the Senedd.

Plaid Cymru’s process is ongoing with other seats currently being confirmed.

The party's rules are that it will not give preferential treatment to any existing Senedd member and that party members were able to vote and give a ranked choice.

To encourage female candidates, the party has selected eight constituencies where a woman will be selected top of the list. Under the new system, voters will choose the political party - not person - they wish to be elected.
