PP Wins Aragón Snap Election as Vox Doubles Seats and Becomes Kingmaker

Vox’s surge leaves Jorge Azcón reliant on the party to reach a governing majority in the Cortes.

Overview

  • Final tally: PP 26 seats (down 2 from 2023), Vox 14 (up from 7), PSOE 18, CHA 6, Teruel Existe 2, and IU–Sumar 1, with Podemos and PAR falling out of the chamber.
  • With 34 seats needed to govern, the PP must secure Vox’s backing, setting up tough negotiations after a campaign marked by clashes between the two parties.
  • Vox has flagged demands including river dredging, rejecting migrant reception and opposing Agenda 2030, while the PP reiterates its refusal to support an Ebro water transfer.
  • Pilar Alegría conceded defeat, said she will lead the opposition, and equaled the PSOE’s 2015 low as CHA emerged as the main winner on the left.
  • The result mirrors Extremadura’s pattern, complicating Feijóo’s early‑election strategy by shrinking the PP’s seats and deepening its reliance on Vox.
