The PSOE expands its electoral advantage with the PP, which drops one and a half points in November, according to the CIS

The PSOE maintains its intention to vote and the PP would drop one and a half points compared to a month ago, according to the November barometer of the Center for Sociological Research (CIS), made public this Friday.

The survey concludes that the Socialist Party, majority partner of the coalition government, would win a hypothetical general election, with 32.7% of support, the same as in October.

The main opposition party, led by Alberto Núñez Feijóo, would gather 27.2% of the ballots, one and a half points less.

With these results, the socialists increase up to five and a half points the distance with respect to the popular.

United We Can, a partner of the PSOE in the Executive, would achieve 12.2% of the votes, half a point less than a month ago.

Vox recovers a little more than one point, up to 10.1%;

Ciudadanos drops slightly to 2,

5% and the pro-independence formation ERC scratches a tenth, with 2.2%.

The poll also asks for the "main person responsible" for the breakdown of the negotiations between the Government and the popular for the renewal of the General Council of the Judiciary and the Constitutional Court.

Almost 40% of those surveyed point to the PP, compared to 21% who point to the PSOE.

The field work of this survey, which analyzes the information from 3,821 interviews, was carried out between November 2 and 12 and its sampling error is 1.6%.

It is the first barometer after the PP broke off negotiations with the Government to renew the Judiciary, which has expired for four years and has the Supreme Court limited due to the impossibility of making appointments while it is in office.

In fact, he asks those surveyed for "the main person responsible" for the failure of the talks for the renewal of the governing body of judges and the Constitutional Court, whose designation is also stuck.

Faced with this dilemma, 39.4% point to the PP as responsible for the break, compared to 21% who point to the PSOE.

The last two days of surveys coincided with the announcement by the Prime Minister,

The position of the PP and PSOE, the two main political forces in the country, remains in a similar line to that of the barometer of municipal vote trends that included an estimate of the general elections and calculated a distance of six points between the formations.

The November barometer asks about the personal preparation of its leaders, Pedro Sánchez and Alberto Núñez Feijóo, and the answers place them on a fairly similar level, although the Prime Minister takes some advantage over the opposition leader.

53% of those surveyed see the socialist leader as "very well prepared" (13.7%) or "quite well prepared" (39.4%), compared to 49.6% who also consider that the popular leader is "very well prepared” (8.9%) or “fairly well prepared (40.7%)”.

As every month, the barometer has evaluated the popularity and acceptance of the different leaders, at a time when the clash between the former leader of Podemos, Pablo Iglesias, and the Minister of Labor, Yolanda Díaz, has also been visible.

It is precisely Díaz, second vice president and leader of United We Can in the coalition government, the policy to which those surveyed give the highest score, 4.9 out of 10. She is followed by the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, with 4, 42, and the leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, with 4.2.

The leader of Más País, Íñigo Errejón reaches 4.13;

Inés Arrimadas, from Ciudadanos, a 3.45, and the worst rated is Santiago Abascal, with a 2.8.

Regarding the main citizen concerns, the economic crisis continues to be the problem most mentioned (34%), followed by unemployment (31.4%) and health (26.6%).

Political problems in general occupy fourth place ―19.4% cite them― and education is in fifth place (16.5%).

The bad behavior of politicians is cited by 10.3%.

When respondents are asked about the problems that most affect them "personally", the economic crisis (36.6%), health (32.6%), unemployment (16.6%), and unemployment (16.6%) remain in the top four positions. %) and education (15.8%).

Then come new uncertainties related to the quality of employment (11.1%), climate change (9.1%) or citizen insecurity (8%).
