The opinion poll was compiled by the company Metroscope and published in the El Pais newspaper on Sunday.
The Metroscope poll, which is the third poll to be published in Spain this week, gives first place in voting intentions to the left-wing Podemos party.
According to El Pais, the party would win 28.4 percent of the vote in a forthcoming election, echoing the numbers published in a poll carried out by radio station Cadena Ser on Friday.
This implies that Podemos' support continues to rise after a spectacular rise following its foundation in February last year and that support has stabilized despite attacks from the more established parties.
Second place in voting intentions goes to the Socialist Party (PSOE), who would take 23.5 percent, while the governing Popular Party (PP) would see less than one in five Spaniards voting for them, with just 19.2 percent.
It should be highlighted that PP and PSOE together would currently win just 42.7 percent of the total vote, which is below the 44 percent that the PP won alone in the 2011 general elections.
Apart from the arrival of Podemos on the political scene, the center-right formation Ciudadanos (Citizens) has also hurt the traditional parties. Citizens was original set up in the Catalan region to represent Catalans who were not in favor of the PP or the PSOE, but against the independence of the region.
The party has now spread out on the national political scene and would poll and estimated 8.1 percent of the vote, not only eating into the PP vote, but also UPyD, with whom they share much of their ideology.
Friday's Cadena Ser poll showed Podemos to attract 27.5 percent of the vote, with the PP on 24.6 percent and the PSOE on 19 percent, while a poll published in the right wing La Razon newspaper gave the PP a narrow lead ahead of the POSE and Podemos.

I rossi alla guerra di Spagna: Podemos primo nei sondaggi...
ReplyDeleteGli euroscettici di sinistra guidati da Pablo Iglesias primi nei sondaggi: si ispirano a Syriza e vogliono spazzar via l'alternativa socialisti-popolari.
Oggi in Grecia, domani in Spagna. Questo il sogno degli spagnoli di Podemos, il partito di estrema sinistra euroscettico e da molti considerato vicino all'antipolitica populista.
Una formazione che da qualche giorno risulta in testa ai sondaggi, con il 28,4% dei consensi.
Il dato è rilevante soprattutto in vista delle elezioni politiche di dicembre. Per ora dietro Podemos si classificano i socialisti del Psoe, con il 23,5% e i popolari del primo ministro Mariano Rajoy, con il 19,2%. Anche sommando le percentuali dei due maggiori partiti tra cui si divide tradizionalmente la scena politica spagnola, si otterrebbe appena un 42,7%: un dato comunque inferiore al 44% con cui i popolari vinsero le elezioni nel 2011..................http://www.ilgiornale.it/news/mondo/i-rossi-guerra-spagna-podemos-primo-nei-sondaggi-1082089.html
