Spain votes in election that could shift power from socialists toward the right, in trend for liberal Europe
Fox News
Spain is holding an early election as Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez's socialists are expected to lose power to the right-wing Popular Party.
Most opinion polls for Sunday’s voting have put the right-wing Popular Party, which won the May vote, ahead of the Socialists but likely needing the support of the far-right Vox party if they want to form a government, according to The Associated Press. Popular Party leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo has said he would prefer to avoid having to form that coalition, fearing that bringing Vox Party leader Santiago Abascal to power would tarnish his own reputation.

The Vox party, which campaigns against the influx of migrants and the idea of manmade climate change, has appealed to some voters for its staunch opposition to separatist movements.
