Sanchismo's collapse accelerates: PSOE loses 1.7 million votes and Sumar 1.6

The pogre bloc is suffering severe electoral erosion, with **PSOE** and **Sumar** losing a combined **3.3 million votes** compared with the last general election.

## The left's meltdown

The coalition government seems to be finding this term in office an uphill battle. The numbers currently circulating, based on a **Hamalgama Métrica** poll for **Vozpópuli**, paint a rather bleak picture for the parties propping up the government. If an election were held tomorrow, the **PSOE** would shed **1,691,210 voters** compared with the 2023 election. That is no small matter.

## Sumar, adrift

And things don't improve if we look at **Sumar**. **Yolanda Díaz**'s party, which was supposed to be the government's key support in Congress, appears to be bleeding out. The poll gives them just **7 seats**, a figure that dwarfs the **31** they started out with. In total, between **PSOE** and **Sumar**, a whopping **3.3 million ballots** vanish from the left's column. This reflects what has been seen in recent regional elections, where public sentiment had already been foreshadowing this collapse.

## The right on the rise

Meanwhile, the right appears to be riding the wave. **PP** and **Vox** combined would reach **212 seats** in a hypothetical electoral scenario. The conservatives led by **Alberto Núñez Feijóo** would improve on their 2023 results, going from **137 to 145 seats**. **Santiago Abascal**'s party, for its part, would see a considerable surge, adding **34 seats** to its bench.

## Where are the votes going?

Analysing where those lost votes are going is key to understanding the shift. According to the poll, **10.5%** of **PSOE** voters from 2023 would now switch to the **PP**, and **4.7%** to **Vox**. From **Sumar**, **2.1%** would jump to **Santiago Abascal**'s ballot, while no one from that camp would defect to the **PP**. Meanwhile, **12.2%** of **PP** voters would switch to **Vox**, which retains **93.1%** loyalty from its electorate.
