      <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="https://static1.ara.cat/clip/95da283f-4c84-4a92-b5b7-c46b39e57f52_16-9-aspect-ratio_default_0.jpg" /></p><p>Either Pedro Sánchez with Yolanda Díaz or Alberto Núñez Feijóo with Santiago Abascal. This is the choice that the two main state blocs offer for July 23, and it seems that in <a href="https://eleccions.ara.cat/generals/23j-2023/totals/catalunya" >Catalonia</a> voters have a clear idea of who to lean towards. The PSC, with Meritxell Batet at the helm, would broadly win the elections and could climb to 16-18 seats, doubling the results of whoever ends up in second place. It would be the first socialist victory in general elections in Catalonia since 2008 when Carme Chacón achieved the party's best historical results with 25 deputies. In any case, the socialist victory in the Principality could end up being bitter if the PP dominates the State as a whole.<a href="https://en.ara.cat/politics/the-pp-would-win-the-elections-by-narrow-margin-but-the-psoe-and-sumar-would-border-an-absolute-majority-according-to-the-cis_1_5748684.html" > The latest poll published, by the CIS</a>, assures that nothing has been decided yet, although most polls place the Popular Party well above the Socialists. The CEO also detects a greater predisposition to participate than on other occasions in the general elections, which could reduce abstention in these elections.</p>]]></description>
