Spain: the Populars win, but the Socialists hold. Vox sovereignists are bad. Governing will be a puzzle

The Populars win the elections in Spain, gaining 136 seats in Parliament.

But the majority is a puzzle: Pedro Sanchez's socialist "rivals" in fact win 122 seats , while Vox (extreme right-wing sovereigns) only 33. Instead, there are 31 seats for Sumar's progressives.

The leader of the PP Alberto Feijóo , prime minister in pectore, even in alliance with Vox would therefore not have the absolute majority (176 seats) to form the government.

“Let us govern,” Feijóo claimed anyway, but a new Sanchez government is not excluded. In this sense, the 7 votes of Junts' Catalan party could be decisive.

The ball now passes to King Felipe VI, who will open the consultations.
