Abascal, in search of the "perplexed" voters of the PP with the pacts that Feijóo has offered Sánchez

The extreme right candidate for the presidency of the Government, Santiago Abascal, faces the final stretch of the campaign with "excellent news": this Tuesday he will not wake up with polls, which he describes as "torture", in the media communication. Some polls to which he claims not to give any validity because they are "remote-controlled" by the powerful, but which predict - to a lesser or greater extent - a collapse of the ultra formation next Sunday. Thus, without forecasts involved, the ultra leader will launch himself in the last days of the electoral contest for the Popular Party voter who, in his opinion, must have been "perplexed" after the last proposal of Alberto Núñez Feijóo.

Abascal was referring to the "five Moncloa pacts" that the popular candidate has offered to the socialist leader, Pedro Sánchez to materialize "a change without anger" that banishes "division". "Not content with offering to all Spaniards the signing of an agreement for the distribution of bipartisan power, he has insisted again," lamented the Vox candidate in the moments before the start of a rally in Toledo, where hundreds have gathered of supporters late in the afternoon of this Monday.

Launched by the popular voters, Abascal has questioned them directly; to all those who “don't understand these offers”. "Neither do we," he assured, showing himself willing to "represent all those people who are so perplexed." "We are willing to do everything possible to defeat those who are not willing to change and who want immobility," he insisted.

In the words of the president of Vox, Feijóo's attitude is "a bit masochistic." He has assured that he does not understand that he offers five State pacts to a party that at the beginning of the week has used a photograph "with very bad intentions" – in reference to the one that appears on a yacht with the drug trafficker Marcial Dorado-. "Socialists are capable of anything," he warned.

Immediately afterwards, and in front of an audience shouting "president, president", Abascal recalled the "scary smile" of former Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero when the PSOE was going to win at the polls a few days ago "with the surprise". "When we see the PSOE talk about surprises, our hair stands on end", he concluded.
