Spain's Socialists may have lost power in the key regions of Valencia and Aragon in Sunday’s local elections, according to a poll by state broadcaster TVE, showing electoral vulnerability ahead of end-of-year general election.
Final figures will be released later on Sunday and tight numbers show that some of the other ten regions, most of them currently run by the governing Socialist Party , and towns could swing with a narrow margin.
But the PP will likely have to rely on the far-right Vox to form governments in Valencia and Aragon, in a possible precursor to a right-wing coalition government after the general election.
