The socialists will exploit Feijóo's defense of Mazón for a year and reorient their campaign on public services versus cuts in the US.
The Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) is regaining optimism ahead of the general election on 29-N. The resignation of Óscar Puente has had a positive impact, allowing the party to differentiate itself from the People's Party (PP) in its response to disasters.

Pedro Sánchez believes that the far-right wave that the PP and Vox are trying to ride is crumbling.
