The socialist government began the government, his party, and the main Whig Council. Opinion polls indicate public opinion favors the People's Party's vote over the People's Party to power in exchange. The election is part of a broader narrative of the rise of authoritarian nationalist and far-right movements across Europe, and whether they can match left-wing inclinations on the European continent.

Some criticized Sánchez's decision to call a snap election, with the People's Party's Alberto Núñez Viejo pointing out that extreme heat in July and plans for voters to travel on holiday might lead to more abstentions. Manuel Lopez believes, which makes him nervous.

Sánchez and his Socialist Party have formed a minority government since January 2020, allying themselves with the far-left Unidas Podemos coalition. Sánchez moved the election forward to July, in part because the first round ended the election's approach.

In general, the elections are seen as a reality test for the political landscape in Spain, as the country faces a host of challenges, including a parliament, and increasing equality in a polarized society. The result could be a transition to its future relations with the European Union, its approach to issues such as climate change and migration, and its domestic political stability.
