Almeida attributes heightened political tension within the municipal government to the socialist spokesperson, Reyes Maroto, citing her remarks on deaths in Madrid nursing homes during the pandemic as a primary cause for the breakdown in relations between their parties. He defended his own strong stance by citing Maroto's statements and asserting that his response is solely focused on this issue, denying any external pressure to escalate tensions.

How does the PP's performance among different demographic groups, such as young voters and women, affect its overall standing and potential governing ability?

The PP's strength lies in attracting over 300,000 voters from the PSOE, dominating the female vote by 3.5 points, and holding an 11-point lead among voters over 65. Despite these strengths, their inability to grow, especially among younger voters where PSOE leads by 9 points, and a net loss of 369,000 voters to Vox, hinder their potential for a governing majority.

How does Vox's international alignment influence its domestic support, and what strategies is the party employing to manage this dynamic?

Vox's declining poll numbers correlate with its alignment with figures like Donald Trump and Viktor Orbán. This stance, while possibly appealing to a segment of its base, appears to be costing the party support among broader segments of the electorate. Recent attempts to improve relations with other European conservatives may indicate that Vox is attempting to mitigate this negative effect.
