Polls disagree on top-rated leader as Sánchez remains voters’ favourite for PM

GESOP puts the Prime Minister ahead in the race to lead Spain, while a separate GAD3 survey gives Alberto Núñez Feijóo the highest overall rating.

Recent surveys in Spain have yielded conflicting results regarding which political leader is most popular to lead the country. The GESOP poll for Prensa Ibérica found Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez as the preferred candidate, while the GAD3 survey rated Alberto Núñez Feijóo of the People's Party as the highest-rated leader overall.

Both polls indicate a widespread dissatisfaction with Spain's political climate, with a significant portion of respondents viewing it as "bad or very bad." The surveys differed in their methodology, with GESOP asking respondents to choose a prime minister and rate politicians, and GAD3 focusing on public assessments of several leaders.

Sánchez retained the lead from a previous GESOP survey in June, but support for his rivals grew more rapidly. Feijóo's rating increased by 3.2 percentage points, while Abascal's rose by 2.7 points, compared to a 0.6-point increase for Sánchez. Neither Feijóo nor Sánchez received a passing score, with Sánchez at 3.7 and Feijóo at 3.5. Voter support for politicians from their own party was notably higher in both polls.
