The PSOE and Broad Front reach a national agreement for joint lists for the Senate

The Spanish left-wing parties have agreed to run together in the Senate in the general elections on 29-N. The coalition, called "Senado de Progreso", will comprise the PSOE, IU, Movimiento SUMAR, Compromís, Más Madrid, Chunta Aragonesista, and Batzarre. The agreement also includes alliances between the PSOE and Més-Izquierda Unida-Sumar in the four islands of Baleares and among all progressive forces in La Gomera. The left-wing alliance aims to become the leading force in many provinces, surpassing the PP.
