The Progressive Pact of Ibiza (Catalan: Pacte Progressista d'Eivissa, Pacte) was an electoral alliance formed in Ibiza by the Socialist Party of the Balearic Islands, United Left of Ibiza, The Greens, Nationalist and Ecologist Agreement of Ibiza and Republican Left of Catalonia to contest the 1999 and 2003 regional elections. Previously, it had contested the 1996 Senate election in both Ibiza and Formentera as the Ibiza and Formentera in the Senate.
Background
Ahead of the 1996 general election, Ibiza and Formentera only elected one senator to the Spanish Cortes. The disunity of the nationalist and left-of-centre forces always meant that the senator was won by right-of-centre parties. As a result, the Pact was meant as an unitary candidacy of all left parties, obtaining a great electoral success by winning the senator from the People's Party.
