Spanish opinion polls are signalling that the Socialist party could win a large share of the vote in a snap election on April 28 – but not enough for it to govern alone.
A host of smaller parties, including Catalan independence parties, are seen with a smaller percentage of the vote while a large number of voters remain undecided as to who to vote for, and this could have a large impact on the final result. Spanish Economy and Enterprise Minister Nadia Calvino told CNBC Friday that the Socialist Party wants to gain a majority this time.
Whoever wins the election will have to focus on dealing with restlessness from secessionist parties in Catalonia and further bids for independence, managing a countering force of nationalist sentiment and the rise of anti-immigrant populism and boosting the economy and job creation.
