Spain’s anti-austerity party, Podemos, has announced it will field a candidate in the Andalusian election in March. Teresa Rodriguez will fight for the regional presidency in a contest the party hopes will trigger its national campaign.

Podemos is currently topping national opinion polls, ahead of the opposition Socialist Party and with the ruling Popular Party trailing in third place with under a year to go before national elections.
