basell she is in madrid for us and barbara for elections in 4 years i mean is there a sense among voters that they are just completely fed up with this heading to the polls. there is certainly care a large amount of election fit she spayed because the last elections here were in april now just 6 months i mean people are called out again they're faced with the same parties again the same pros now and the same slogans so what has changed in the meantime nothing really so you get a strong feeling of that plus the campaign was sure it was like luster there were no posters no slogans some released but really not much because the parties agreed on not spending any money because they saw that it might in rage voters even further what they really want is end to this ongoing political crisis this is sort of dead end in spanish politics we talked to some people coming out of this polling
1:03 pm
station here in the center of madrid let's listen in to what they had to say. for somebody i really hope that we can end this confusing situation because in the end it will not lead us anywhere in the short term where there's a high percentage of people who won't show up to very today but i think in the end people will stick to their parties and there might be a big difference with the reform but that if they can't agree this time it will be the last time i vote and they also shouldn't be paid anymore. so barbara certainly fatigue playing a factor in this election of course we've seen as well these violent protests in barcelona by pro independence protesters what role is catalonia playing in this launch. to come alone to really played a crucial role in this election came pain as applause because emotions here are really running high on both sides it's not only that in barcelona and around this separatist was sort of whipping out for. feeling again amongst their supporters but
1:04 pm
on the other side i mean emotions were really running high with many spanish people saying we are one country we are united and this was really fostering nationalism and many you know and of course on the right side there is talk about that the separatists need to be suppressed by any means by legal means by police and they really need to be squashed whereas pedro centrist the current acting prime minister was trying to sort of be more conciliatory and look for a political solution so there really really hard words on the right side of the spectrum here and so this might really sort of sharpen the political divide the country even further now barbara we know pedro sanchez the socialist they're hoping to pick up more seats it's not clear that they'll be able to do that of one party that is likely to gain seats is that the far right box party tell us about the party and why they are resonating with voters. yet there is
