Spanish Election Results Leave Country in Political Gridlock, With No Clear Path to Forming a Government

Spain's national elections on Sunday left the country in political gridlock, with neither the right nor the left able to secure a majority. The Socialists, who finished in second place, were able to call on the predicted 31 seats of the left-wing Sumar, or Joining Forces alliance, and several smaller parties, giving them a combined total of 172 seats. This means that neither side has a clear path toward forging a new government, leaving the country in a state of political uncertainty with no clear majority.
