I vote against the Spanish nationalist right
  • The elections to the Spanish Courts, when they have a high turnout, are in favour of the Left and so it was yesterday too. In recent days, there was a strong mobilization by the voters, the one on 28 April, who smelled of the 2001 elections to the Basque Parliament. 18 years ago, the fear of Mayor Oreja was the engine of the mobilization in the CAV, in yesterday's abstention of the extreme right without a face mask turned on the critical vote of the left in Spain.

The useful vote has focused on the PSOE to the detriment of the United Nations. However, the left-wing coalition has resisted better than it believed in a difficult context. The small loss of votes on the right has been three percentage points, but there has been a dramatic decline in the seats because it has been dispersed in three nominations. Vox has not fulfilled his expectations, his neoliberal programme does not help him to repeat the success of other far-right European parties. On the other hand, Citizens has almost stood ahead of pp, so it does not see viable an entity between socialists and oranges if Rivera wants to take the leader of the right. The PSOE will have to look left to seek support in social policies, but by selling as an exception from time to time it will seek the crutch of Citizens for economic policies and defending the nationalist state reason.

Catalonia and Hego Euskal Herria have demonstrated that these are very different realities in the Spanish State. Both have been the vanguard of the trench against the extreme right

Meanwhile, Catalonia and Hego Euskal Herria have once again demonstrated that they are very different realities in the Spanish State. Both have been the vanguard of the trench against the extreme right, which has been prevented. The PNV has won over 100,000 votes and returns to the Lower House as the first party of the CAV and Hego Euskal Herria. The PSOE has risen in a similar way to what was expected in the Basque Country, although with less intensity due to the good results obtained by Elkarrekin Podemos in the CAV. In the Basque Country, a left-wing voter is not prepared to return to the Socialists. EH Bildu has achieved good results both in Members and in votes, exceeding the record of 250,000 votes. The Abertzale coalition, like the PNV, has had as its axis its will to influence Madrid by claiming the useful vote. It has worked, EH Bildu has regained Elkarrekin's vote. We can and thanks to the fear of Vox it has drawn a large number of voters from the critical abstention.

Finally, the main losers of Hego Euskal Herria have been the Spanish parties on the right. In the CAV they have been left without representation because a small number of voters have dispersed on three occasions and if it remains in Navarra it has been thanks to the coalition UPN, pp and Citizens. In general, however, the right has collapsed in votes and in percentage of votes. Most Navarros voters do not want to look to the right.
