Vox baraja no presentarse al Senado en algunas provincias para evitar una mayoría de izquierdas

La decisión sin precedentes afianzaría el pacto de hierro entre Abascal y Feijóo ante las elecciones del 29 de noviembre

Vox baraja no presentarse al Senado en algunas provincias para evitar una mayoría de izquierdas

El Pais reports that Vox is considering not running candidates for the Senate in certain provinces in order to prevent a left-wing majority in the upper chamber of parliament. The far-right party is reportedly exploring the possibility of asking the People's Party (PP) to run in these districts instead. This move comes in response to the joint Senate candidacy announced by the Socialist Party (PSOE) and the Broad Front (Frente Amplio) in 45 provinces under the Senado de Progreso banner.

Vox leader Santiago Abascal has issued a "message of calm" to his supporters, vowing to act with "heightened vision" and take whatever measures are necessary to ensure that a potential coalition government between the PP and Vox does not depend on the leadership of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and his allies.
