The enlightened gentlemen of Europe are always coming up with new things," thundered Socorro Cuevas, 63, a long-time farmer who is the far-right Vox party's agriculture councillor in the central municipality of Socuellamos.
According to recent polls, almost 40% of Spanish men aged between 18 and 34 say that they plan to vote for Vox, the far-right party. Vox won its first seat in the Spanish parliament in 2019 and now it is surging again. Its recent success is no longer a story of just male voters, either: 20% of young women say they would vote for Vox, with the biggest increase among the youngest voters in that group.
