Spain: conservative People’s party wins unprecedented majority in Andalucía

Win frees PP from relying on far-right Vox to govern, as leftwing parties take a drubbing

Spain's conservative People's party has won a resounding majority in the regional elections in Andalucia, in an unprecedented win that frees it from relying on the far-right Vox party to govern in the country's most populous region.

With 99% of polling stations in the southern Spanish region reporting, the PP, in opposition nationally, had received 58 seats - three more than the 55 needed for a majority. It is the party's best-ever result in the region.
