"Spanish PM Sanchez's Snap Election Hopes Rely on Fear of Far-Right"

TL;DR Summary
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez is hoping to win the snap general election by remobilizing the left to prevent a possible coalition between the conservative People's Party and the far-right Vox party. Despite negative polls and setbacks in previous elections, Sanchez is using the fear of the far right coming to power to mobilize the left-wing electorate. The opposition has criticized Sanchez for his record and intends to repeal his implemented reforms. Polls indicate that the People's Party will win the election, but it remains to be seen if they will need Vox's backing.
