The far-right in Spain is moving towards its first participation in forming a government since Francisco Franco's rule, as two polls conducted in the last week of the election campaign indicated that the People's Party (PP), a center-right party, and the anti-Islam and feminist party Vox will win enough seats in today's elections to form a coalition government together.
A voter survey conducted by the JAD3 institute and published after the voting ended shows that the People's Party is expected to win around 150 seats, while Vox is set to secure 31 seats, which is sufficient to achieve a majority in the 350-seat parliament. Another survey by Sigma Dos predicts that the People's Party will obtain between 145 and 150 seats, while Vox is expected to gain between 24 and 27 seats.
The JAD3 institute indicated that the Socialists will secure 112 seats, while Sigma Dos expects them to get between 113 and 118 seats. The JAD3 poll included ten thousand voters and concluded yesterday, Saturday, while the Sigma Dos survey continued until today, Sunday, and encompassed 17 thousand individuals.
The formation of a second coalition government between the People's Party and Vox in Spain will depend on negotiations the two parties will conduct in the upcoming days, weeks, or months.
