• Politics Vox fills its fiefdoms to launch in the final stretch of the campaign

All roads lead from Vox to Columbus. To the square of its symbolic majorities, that of its historical claims, to its electoral amulet Santiago Abascal went this Friday surrounded by the entire dome of the party to, after 11,000 kilometers of route, close the most important campaign for Vox. With 36 hours to go before the polling stations open, Abascal issued the latest proclamation to demand that, unlike the Popular Party, they do not relax: "The battle is not won."

"There is one last effort left to convince our compatriots." The entire Vox leadership oozed intensity so that the electorate does not lower its arms or trust. Iván Espinosa de los Monteros, Ignacio Garriga or Jorge Buxadé, among others, encouraged those present to continue trying to convince their environments until Sunday so that the result of Vox is the widest possible and thus be able to guarantee "the alternative". "It is a historic opportunity for Spain to begin to change course," said the secretary general.

Abascal accused Alberto Núñez Feijóo, taking advantage of the end of the campaign, of "whitewashing" Pedro Sánchez and his government management with his offer of state pacts and with the proposed agreement to govern the most voted list. This is the argument that Vox is exploiting from the face-to-face held on Monday of last week on RTVE: to promise that the only vote that guarantees an agenda frontally opposed to Sanchismo is the one that goes to Santiago Abascal. A strategy with which to try to stop the transfer of votes to the PP that the polls detect. "It's not a useful vote; it's a confusing vote," Garriga warned about the popular option.

In fact, Espinosa de los Monteros said that there are only two options in these elections: either bet on the "red" or the "green." "The blue button doesn't work," he said. Something to which Abascal joined, who said he understood and respected the loyalty of the popular voter to Alberto Núñez Feijóo, but still threw himself for his support: "I dare to ask for your confidence. We are not going to let them down, we are capable of representing them."

Vox's leadership was not alone in Colón. More than 5,000 people, according to the party's count, filled a closing rally that was attended, as throughout the campaign, by fifteen international leaders of the alternative right linked to Vox: the prime ministers of Italy, Giorgia Meloni; Poland, Mateusz Morawiecki, and Hungary's Viktor Orbán, intervened and encouraged Abascal to expand the success of his partners throughout Europe to Spain. Numerous representatives of the party's Latin American alliances also participated, such as José Antonio Kast, a former Chilean conservative leader.

Vox comes from making a more moderate campaign than in the municipal and regional elections. Even so, Abascal denounced that this has been "the most aggressive, hardest and difficult" that his party has faced, which opted to play at home in almost all acts: he went to his fiefdoms and where he recently consecrated himself as a government force. And he faced the final stretch in his most emblematic squares: Toledo, Guadalajara, Murcia and Madrid as the culmination of his caravan.

In the middle of this route, the debate to three held on Wednesday in RTVE served Vox to recharge emotions and redouble its power in the face of the last sprint. In the leadership of the party they believe that the role played by Abascal encompassing the entire right in the absence of Alberto Núñez Feijóo and confronting him only with the two government leaders, Pedro Sánchez and Yolanda Díaz, gave wings to the candidate and strength to the party in the final stretch of the race to the polls.
