Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has called for an early general election following the defeat of his housing crisis measures in parliament. Polls indicate that his Socialist party is currently behind the conservative People's Party, which may seek to ally with the far-right Vox party to form a government.

Watch for how the housing crisis shapes voter sentiment in the upcoming election. The potential alliance between the People's Party and Vox could shift Spain's political landscape significantly, impacting social policies and economic reforms.
