English · Original discussion in Spanish · Published
The Sociometric poll dated November 8 places the People's Party (PP) at 32.0% with 134 seats, the Socialist Party (PSOE) at 27.7% with 108, and Vox at 18.9% with 66. The parties currently supporting the Spanish government would hold just 145 seats combined.
The **Sociometric** survey from **November 8** presents an electoral map led by the PP, highlighting a crucial figure: the current investiture bloc would shrink to **145 seats**. This comprises **134** for the PP, **108** for the PSOE, and **66** for Vox.
## PP rises to 32.0% while PSOE holds 108 seats
The PP reaches **32.0%** and **134 seats**, its highest result in this polling series. The PSOE drops to **27.7%** and **108 seats**, a tally that practically forces it to look leftward and toward peripheral parties for any majority. Vox remains the third force with **18.9%** and **66 seats**, a result that doesn't shift the balance alone but conditions any potential coalition math.
## Investiture partners far from majority
The parties sustaining the current government fall short. **Broad Front (F. Amplio)** stays at **4.4%** and **5 seats**; **ERC** is at **2.4%** and **9**; **Sumar (Adelante)** at **1.7%** and **3**; and **EH Bildu** at **1.6%**. **SALF** appears with **2.2%** and **0 seats**, indicating the floor of a formation excluded from seat distribution. Their combined total yields the **145** seats of the investiture bloc, well below the **176** needed for an absolute majority.
## What the 145-seat figure means
This number matters because it measures the gap between the bloc that invested the government and the absolute majority. With **145 seats**, the investiture bloc would need **31** more to reach **176**, yet no partner in this poll can provide them. The PP, with **134**, also falls short: it lacks **42** seats, which only Vox, with **66**, could theoretically supply in one go.
This poll is a snapshot, not a final result. Sociometric publishes surveys with specific samples and margins that should be reviewed before treating these figures as definitive.
