[[LA Times / Jaweed Kaleem](] The polarization of Spain's politics - The center-left Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party won Spain's election Sunday, a stark contrast from the many right-wing governments that are taking over in Europe. [[NYT / Raphael Minder](] - The party, however, is short of gaining a majority in parliament, with only 123 of the 350 seats. Even if it partners with the far-left party, which gained 42 seats, it would not reach the 176 seats needed for a coalition government –– meaning it will have to reach out to smaller parties. [[NPR / Matthew Schwartz](] - The main conservative opposition party only won half the seats it did in 2016, marking the group's worst performance in history. [[NYT / Raphael Minder](] - But Vox, the country's far-right and anti-immigration party, made headway this election, winning 24 seats. In the span of a few years, it's gone from a political afterthought to a legitimate voice in parliament. [[CNN / Jack Guy, Laura Perez-Maestro, and Sheena McKenzie](] - The election also saw a surge in voter turnout at 76 percent, up 9 percent from 2016. [[BBC](] - The current prime minister and socialist party leader, Pedro Sánchez, faces a major territorial crisis with Catalonia, which is trying to secede from Spain. All eyes are on him to see how he deals with the conflict, which has been a polarizing political issue for the country. [[Vox / Jen Kirby](] - Sánchez will also have to deal with the fragmented politics of Spain, where the influence of small parties such as Vox is growing. Experts say the road to forming a government will likely be long and complicated, especially with the European parliamentary elections coming up next month.
