Vox doubled its seats, apparently.

2019-11-11 00:54:31 UTC  

Doesn't look like the political deadlock is going to be broken, though: nobody has a majority.

2019-11-11 00:55:27 UTC  

Majorities usually don't happen in parliamentary systems

2019-11-11 00:56:11 UTC  

@galesteppes yes they do

2019-11-11 00:56:13 UTC  

Or used to

2019-11-11 00:56:21 UTC  

But they're gonna need to make a coalition

2019-11-11 00:56:25 UTC  

Not any more, apparently.

2019-11-11 00:56:29 UTC  

That's what I meant

2019-11-11 00:56:41 UTC  

No single party has a majority

2019-11-11 00:56:47 UTC  

Only a plurality

2019-11-11 00:56:51 UTC  

So vox really likely to get in the government anyways

2019-11-11 00:57:05 UTC  

Yeah, right wing has most votes combined.

2019-11-11 00:57:05 UTC  

Unless the PP act like homos

2019-11-11 00:57:48 UTC  

Likely

2019-11-11 00:58:26 UTC  

In other news, sovranists here have 45% of popular support

2019-11-11 00:58:42 UTC

2019-11-11 00:58:56 UTC  

Elections ~~not~~ soon

2019-11-11 01:00:59 UTC  

Can we randomly decimate the Spanish so they can get a government already

2019-11-11 01:01:37 UTC  

That wouldn't help though

2019-11-11 01:01:54 UTC  

The Guardian...

2019-11-11 01:02:07 UTC  

It has a comprehensive analysis of the parties

2019-11-11 01:02:10 UTC  

If you don't vote, you get deported to Syria and a random immigrant gets your possessions and positions

2019-11-11 01:02:12 UTC  

How's that

2019-11-11 01:02:20 UTC  

for non Spaniards to understand who is who

2019-11-11 01:02:29 UTC  

Oh, it's actually just a dataset.

2019-11-11 01:02:31 UTC  

as well as vote distribution

2019-11-11 01:02:34 UTC  

I was expecting something insufferable.

2019-11-11 01:02:36 UTC  

yeh...

2019-11-11 01:02:43 UTC  

don't be quick to assume things

2019-11-11 01:02:55 UTC  

Been playing this politics game too long...

2019-11-11 01:03:41 UTC  

Seems like you haven't learnt much then. Things aren't always what they appear to be

2019-11-11 01:04:37 UTC  

Ciudadanos played their cards so terribly wrong that they got slaughtered this round

2019-11-11 01:05:26 UTC  

Like for fucks sake, they had the key to forming a government, but decided to play a game without understanding that the other parties have been playing this game for decades

2019-11-11 01:05:58 UTC  

Lmao imagine having to create a new govt every year

2019-11-11 01:06:01 UTC  

<:kek:590371888480387073>

2019-11-11 01:06:13 UTC  

Ask the Italians about that

2019-11-11 01:06:23 UTC  

New PM every season

2019-11-11 01:06:37 UTC  

I don't know much about the Spanish parties.

2019-11-11 01:06:42 UTC  

America did it once over 200 years ago and wiped our hands of that nonsense
