It's not new, but it does intensify every day. The PP of Madrid and the far-right Vox are shamelessly spreading the theory of electoral fraud. In the same vein as Donald Trump in the United States after his 2020 defeat – which ended in a failed coup insurrection – and as the Spanish right had already hinted with attacks on mail-in voting in both the last general elections and the Extremaduran contests, the flag of electoral fraud, which points to Pedro Sánchez as guilty, is once again flying.

The People's Party (PP) has crossed a new line today in its attempt to delegitimize the Spanish government: it will ask the Electoral Commission to study the postal votes from the last Spanish elections. This was announced this morning by Alberto Núñez Feijóo in an interview on EsRadio, in which he cited the words of former President José María Aznar, who yesterday raised the possibility of electoral fraud by the PSOE. In this way, the PP is adopting an unfounded approach used by several far-right parties around the world and is increasing the pressure on Pedro Sánchez to call elections. just as the president of the Episcopal Conference did on Friday, to which former President José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero responded today.
