Una victoria amarga de Azcón
Feb. 8, 2026

  • Historic disaster for the PSOE in the Aragón elections, with a clear victory for the PP and the rise of Vox.
  • The PP's setback, going from 28 to 26 seats, signals a trend change.
  • Jorge Azcón decided to bring forward the elections to facilitate governability.
  • The right currently has more than 50% of the vote in Aragón and Extremadura.
  • The PP has incurred a loss of 1.24% and two deputies, indicating the need for analysis.
  • The results underline the debacle of the PSOE and Podemos in the political arena.
  • The PSOE self-destructs as an alternative for government.
  • Vox has obtained enough representation to have to assume real government responsibilities.

Conclusion: The election results suggest that the majority of voters expect an agreement between the PP and Vox to facilitate governability. Both parties face the challenge of translating the electoral results into stability.
