SPAIN / By Paul Torres

The PSOE would win the regional elections in Asturias on May 28 by obtaining 36.7% of the votes. It would be followed by the PP, which would achieve 27.3% of the vote, and the third political force in the Asturian parliament would be Vox with 9.1% of the vote, according to the macro-survey published this Thursday by the Center for Sociological Research (CIS)..

The CIS has not estimated seats in this study as a result of the sample size (500 interviews) and the electoral constituencies, so there is no distribution of seats in the General Meeting of the Principality.

The CIS also predicts that the fourth political force in the Principality would be Podemos with 8% of the votes; fifth force Call for Asturias with 6.8%, Foro Asturias with the support of 4.5% and Ciudadanos would get the support of 3.7%. The study maintains that 22.3 percent of the Asturian respondents have not yet decided on the vote. Abstention is 1.7% and people who have not wanted to answer amount to 3.3%.

Leader Assessments

The current president of the Principality of Asturias and PSOE candidate for re-election in the upcoming regional elections on May 28, Adrián Barbón, is the most valued political leader in Asturias and the only one whose work is approved by the citizens..

In this way, the CIS survey determines that the average grade that Asturians give Barbón is 5.46, above the PP candidate, Diego Canga, who obtains a 4.60 grade; Covadonga Tomé, candidate for Podemos, who scores 4.48; followed by the candidate for Call for Asturias (IU-Más País), Ovidio Zapico, with 4.33; the candidate from Foro Asturias, Adrián Pumares, who has a 4.27; the Ciudadanos candidate, Manuel Iñarra, with 3.85; and the Vox candidate, Carolina López, with 3.65.
