EXIT POLL: SPAIN RULING PARTY WINS MOST ELECTION VOTES (SKY NEWS)

Sky News ^ | 14 march | Sky News

[Eurotwit]

First exit polls looks very promising.

[Kieri]

Fox reporting the vote was 6-7% higher than last year. I *think* the reporter said the Socialist Party was up by 1% at the moment.

Democrats are going to be very upset! They were hoping that if the opposition wins that they will withdraw troops from Iraq therefore giving Bush a Slap in the face! Keeping my fingers crossed!

[Dane]

If true the nervous nellies on FR were wrong about the Spanish people going the french route of appeasement.

I'm watching Fox News. Did their guy in Spain just say the Socialists are up by about 1% in exit polls?

[Unam Sanctam]

I heard that on Fox too. I hope it's wrong and Sky news right!

[mass55th]

I wasn't sure I had heard him right, but since you heard the same thing...then the Socialists are up by 1%. Hope this doesn't hold.

[Eurotwit]

I don't know..After the initial news alert on Sky the reporter now says it looks to ber very close.

[Letitring]

I heard the same thing. I hope Sky News is correct!

[nuconvert]

Great news, thanks

Polls before the election showed the ruling party(Anzar's party) up by 4%.

The Spaniards hold the line. Viva! Ole! And expel the Muslims once again. And so should the U.S.

[nuconvert]

Keep us posted, plz, Euro

[ontos-on]

Their guy is Spain is a little shaky. Last night he said that news of new al-queda threats v US "are scary". Kaisich corrected him and said they were not "scary " only "concerning". My respect for JK wen tup a bit with that exchange.

That was also before the terrorist bombing on Thursday.

[Kieri]

I wasn't sure I had heard him right, but since you heard the same thing...then the Socialists are up by 1%. Hope this doesn't hold.If the ruling party does come out on top, an election this close is going to cause problems when it comes to the war on terror.

I feel terrible for the losses they've suffered, but they'd need to multiply their deaths by FIFTEEN to approach ours on 9/11. And how can they possibly think that Muslim terrorists can be appeased? I hope they can see through their collective grief and use their anger to help us fight these monsters.

i just posted on the European election thread. i don't know which is the thread.
TV here is saying PP will lose its majority
PSOE will win 154-158 seats
PP will have 150-154
this is just a projection!

[Eurotwit]

The first word on Sky News was the line in the title of this thread. Then after a while the reporter said indications are that it will be very close.

[Mike Darancette]

If it turns out that Spain has a spine, I'll go out and buy something Spanish to go with my Basque stuff.

[KantianBurke]

Spain's population is much less than ours. If one does the math, the Spanish people compartively lost over 1600 people. I'll try to find the link that gives the equation.
