Juan Pastor Marco

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Juan Pastor Marco (24 November 1951 – 11 August 2020)[1] was a Spanish politician for the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE).

After graduating in Economic Sciences, Pastor joined the PSOE in 1974[2] and at the 1977 General Election he was elected to the Spanish Congress of Deputies representing Valencia Province.[3]

He then served as Secretary General of the PSOE in the Valencian Community from 1978 to 1979.[2] On the left of the party,[2] he was a critic of the more centrist policies pursued by José Luis Albiñana Olmos, the first President of the Valencian Government, the Valencian regional administration.[2] He was re-elected to Congress at the 1979 General Election.[4] In 1980 he again attempted to become PSOE Secretary General in Valencia, running on a platform critical of the regional leadership[2] but lost to Joan Lerma. He did not stand at the 1982 General Election.
