Broad Front and Podemos fail in their attempt to agree on a single ticket for 29-N

Left-wing parties in Spain have failed to reach a nationwide agreement on a single ballot for the general elections on 29-N, despite intense negotiations over the past ten days. An agreement was only reached in Comunidad Valenciana and Canarias.

The negotiations were marked by long periods of silence and last-minute offers.
