1/4 of Spain is fascist? Seems awfully high.
The fascist party (VOX) got almost 10% of votes last elections. The right-wing party (PP) got almost 40%.
Not all the fascists vote VOX though, many vote PP. So the amount of fascists is somewhere between 10% and almost 50%. Depending on how fascist you deem PP. 25% is not too far fetched.
I'm right next door (hello from Portugal!) and Spanish political alignment never made sense to me.
Our PP was center, right leaning, but very much tame. And I never really understood where Vox placed itself.
Vox is Chega, PP is like Passos Coelho era PSD
