Five decades after Franco's death, Spain votes on putting far right back in power
The Guardian
|July 22, 2023
Spain is facing a stark choice between the left and right blocs as it prepares for a snap general election tomorrow that could see the far right winning a place in government for the first time since the country returned to democracy following General Franco's death almost five decades ago.
The election - in which the opposition conservative People's party (PP) is expected to finish first but fall short of an absolute majority has been closely and bitterly fought. Although the PP is topping the polls and its leader, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, emerged as the surprise winner of a head-to-head debate last week with Spain's socialist prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, the PP's campaign has had a poor final few days.
Tomorrow's vote was called by Sánchez after his ruling Spanish Socialist Workers' party (PSOE) and its smaller coalition partners in the Unidas Podemos alliance did far worse than expected in May's regional and municipal elections.
