Socialists Win in Spain

With 90% of the vote in, it looks like the "Socialist Workers Party is on track to win 164 seats in the country's 350-seat parliament, just shy of an absolute majority. The ruling conservative Popular Party is tipped to win 148 seats. The Socialists so far have won 43.01 percent of the total vote, ending eight years of conservative rule."
