Cambio-Aldaketa was a Navarrese electoral coalition created to contest elections to the Senate of Spain in the run up to the 2015 General Election.

The coalition was formally created by an alliance of Geroa Bai, Podemos, EH Bildu and Izquierda-Ezkerra after they collected the required 8,300 signatures in November 2015.[1] The coalition nominated Ana Luján Martínez, Patxi Zamora Aznar and Iñaki Bernal Lumbreras as their candidates for the Senate in the election held the following month.[2] In spite of the fact the coalition itself expect to win the election in Navarre and consequently 3 out of 4 Navarrese senators, the coalition failed and the its candidates acquired only 97521, 93858 and 91510 votes respectively, and therefore only Ana Lujan was elected as Navarra's fourth Senator. [3]

After only four months of existence, the dissolution of the Spanish parliament and the calling for a new Spanish general election put an end to the coalition when two of its members refused to recreate it citing the previous failure in obtaining 3 senators.
