A general election will be held in Spain on 29 November 2026 to elect the members of the 16th Cortes Generales under the Spanish Constitution of 1978. All 350 seats in the Congress of Deputies will be up for election, as well as 209 of 267 seats in the Senate. Following the 2023 election, Pedro Sánchez was re-elected as prime minister of Spain and formed a third government—comprising the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) and Sumar—with the support of Together for Catalonia (Junts), in exchange for a controversial amnesty law. Tensions with the opposition People's Party (PP) and far-right Vox dominated Sánchez's third term, as well as an unraveling international situation (with the ongoing war in Ukraine, the Gaza genocide, the tariff policy of the second Trump administration, and the 2026 Iran war and its economic impact), economic growth amid a rising cost of living, and a number of corruption probes affecting the government (mainly, the Koldo and Zapatero affairs). Also notable were the alleged mismanagements of a number of environmental disasters by PP-controlled administrations (particularly climate crisis-aggravated environmental disasters such as the 2024 Valencian floods and the 2025 and 2026 wildfires), sexual misconduct allegations affecting various parties and institutions, growing public outrage over the management of public services (particularly following the 2025 Iberian Peninsula blackout, and the 2026 Adamuz and Gelida train accidents), and immigration (with critical points in Torre-Pacheco and Ceuta). While Sánchez admitted to having twice hesitated whether to resign—in April 2024 amid a controversial judicial probe into his wife; then in July 2025 after the resignation of Santos Cerdán as PSOE's organization secretary over the Koldo affair—he voiced his intention to run for a new term as prime minister. Amid major housing protests in the autumn of 2026 and the parliamentary defeat of his relief plans by PP, Vox and Junts, Sánchez dissolved parliament and called the election for 29 November. The member parties of Sumar (except for Podemos, which had split off in December 2023) launched a new alliance, the Broad Front, with former Barcelona mayor Ada Colau replacing Yolanda Díaz as leading candidate. For the first time since 1977, a major left-wing alliance including the PSOE (Senate of Progress) was formed for the upper chamber, prompting PP and Vox to assess potential forms of electoral cooperation. Together with Vox, PP leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo pledged to carry out sweeping right-wing reforms, including on social issues and constitutional reform. The 2026 Urda train collision on 28 October led most parties but Vox to suspend their campaigns and prompted the resignation of Óscar Puente as minister of Transport and Sustainable Mobility.
