Pollsters in Europe must be among the world’s worst. In Spain they cannot even get exit polls correct.
“United We Can” was supposed to soar into second place in Spanish elections. Instead, with 94% of the vote counted, “We Can” has a mere 13% of the vote.
From El Confidencial Live Results.
It is impossible for PSOE and “United We Can” to form a coalition.
Result Spanish election rerun:
Left=PSOE+Podemos lost 2 seats
Right=PP+Ciudadanos gained 5
Still no 2-party majority pic.twitter.com/JHG9been16— Kees van der Leun (@Sustainable2050) June 26, 2016
Possibilities
- If either PSOE abstains, the Popular Party (PP) stays in power.
- Another election.
The price for abstention could be the removal of acting Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy.
