Spanish Election Tallies

Alan at SoutherlyBuster has added up the gains and losses by each party:

  1. PSOE +39
  2. PP -35
  3. CiU (Catalan centre-right) 10 -5
  4. ERC (Catalan leftists) 8 +7
  5. EAJ-PNV (Basque moderates) 7 deputies, -0
  6. IU (left-socialist) 5 deputies -4
  7. CC (Canarian centrists, would have entered a coalition with the PP) 3 -1
  8. BNG (Galician socialists) 2 deputies -1
  9. CHA (Aragonese regionalists) 1 deputy, -0
  10. EA (Basque separatists) 1 deputy -0
  11. Na-Bai, 1 deputy -0

All parties, except ERC, EAJ-PNV and the single-member groups, have lost deputies to the PSOE. This is a very broad victory.

That is confirmed when you look at the regions. The PSOE won a majority of deputies in 3 regions, half the deputies in another 7, and minorities in 8. The 8 regions where the PSOE has a minority include the tiny exclaves of Melilla and Ceuta with only 1 seat each.
