The Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) announced on Monday April 29,2019 it will attempt to govern following a resounding victory in national polls.
"We believe that we have more than enough support to be the rudder of this ship," Carmen Calvo, the deputy prime minister in the previous government, told Spanish radio service Cadena SER
Pedro Sanchez and his centre-left PSOE were the clear winners of Spain's general elections on Sunday after garnering 123 seats.
The anti-austerity, left-wing Unidas Podemos (UP) party gained 42 seats and has signaled its openness to work with PSOE.
However, their combined 165 seats still fall short of the 176 required for an absolute majority in the 350-seat Congress of Deputies in Spain
The governing Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) has won the country's general election with 123 seats after 99.9 percent of the votes were counted.
PSOE's historical centre-right rival, the People's Party (PP), won 66 seats in Sunday's election in Spain.
PP won 66 seats, a decrease of 71 seats from the previous government.
Citizens won 57 seats, a gain of 25, while Vox made historic gains with 24 seats representing the far right's return to Spanish national politics
