The retirement home
The Senate, once seen as a retirement home, is now viewed as crucial for defending democracy in Spain. The PSOE and the left-wing coalition aim to present joint lists to prevent a right-wing majority. Meanwhile, the right is also strategizing to maximize their senatorial representation. This election cycle reveals a shift in political dynamics, with parties on both sides moving towards extremes and abandoning the center. The upcoming elections will likely reflect these changes, as voters are increasingly willing to align with more polarized options.
