The Socialist Party handily won Spain’s April 28 election, thanks to very high turnout among leftists who feared a return to ultra-right government. Spain had a rightist military regime until 1975.
Sánchez seeks to build alliances but not a formal coalition as the Socialists win but fall short of an absolute majority.
The PP wants to restrict access to terminations and Vox wants to ban all public funding for them.
Rather than setting itself against the EU like many other groups, Vox sees regional independence movements as its enemy.
