Antonio Camacho García

Antonio Camacho García (26 September 1926 – 25 December 2017) was a Spanish politician who served as the mayor of Granada in 1979.

Camacho became Granada's first mayor following the Spanish transition to democracy and the 1979 local election, the first since the end of Francoist Spain.

[1] Camacho, and his Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE), came to power in Granada due to an agreement between the PSOE, the Partido Socialista de Andalucía (PSA), and the Conservative Party (PC) following the 1979 Spanish local elections.

[1] PSOE and PSA decided to exchange control of two of Andalusicia's largest cities: Granada and Sevilla.

[1] In exchange for Granada, the Partido Socialista de Andalucía (PSA) (now known as the Andalusian Party) was given control of Sevilla's city government.
