On car last month thanks for joining us bolivias embattled president abel morales is calling for new elections after a Regional Election monitor reported multiple irregularities with octobers Voting Results it marks a sudden reversal from ralitsa after claiming victory 3 weeks ago demonstrators in bolivia say the president rigged the votes and have staged multiple protests in some Cities Police have marched right alongside antigovernment protesters further increasing pressure on the president or alesis bolivias 1st indigenous leader and has held office since 20 since 2006. Lets bring in our correspondent your 100 mirrors hes standing by for us in the capital of bolivia that would be love past know your 100 b. Election Monitoring Group always yes thats the organization of american states said that the october vote should be ignored why is that what did the group find. You know theyre going to say enough american states has announced that they found in this audit they have been going doing for the last 2 weeks that they at least 1700 recalled that it does so with this. Not very by the results of the election thats why they they recommend a new election they found at least 350000 votes that could be not legal votes so ive big difference that could change completely if there were sort of this election thats why there were comments just not just a new election but also to set up an Electoral Commission to organize this event i mean correct me if im wrong but this certainly seems like the president is backtracking now he had been defending those Election Results now hes calling for a new election is that true. Yeah the opposition didnt the opposition leaders announced that they have not spoken out not yet but here we are in front of the headquarters of the government of ever morale is so weve been talking with deputies of the opposition they have been saying that the on the going to participate in this in this call for fresh elections they are supposed to to choose the new Electoral Commission and they have been saying to us that they are not going to do that they want the resignation of evermore others they keep firm in this and this they just want us out of power and we are awaiting the announce of a look at my job he is the leader of the me to see because the this is the they disappear liams. Civil society we has been taking part of this opposition process and he is supposed to talk given the time who opposed this in the election is going to talking about one hour so we dont know exactly what they are going to do is to say but it looks on likely that they want to participate in this for us for elections announced for able to ever mothers and given what you just said i mean do you think that a new election will satisfy the opposition and satisfy the protesters or will we see more protests i dont think so really after the last week they have been asking for the resignation of over others and now it looks looks like we are announcing a for us fresh election i think they want to go. Beyond of these and i dont think is going to change the what the opposition have hes been asking for so we have to wait a little bit to see watch what they announce but it looks really unlikely that they are going to accept this call your honor mir is reporting for us in love pas thank you very much. Well in spain citizens are voting today in the 4th election in 4 years opinion polls show Prime MinisterPedro Sanchez and his socialist party or end will be in the lead though its predicted they will not secure a majority the far right box party could double its seeds in parliament after a rise in the last Election Voter fatigue has set in the midst spains political paralysis Party Leaders urged them to turn out for sundays ballot the 2nd this year the country is deeply divided but one thing voters do seem to agree on is ending the stalemate. So. I really hope that we can end this confusing situation because in the end it will not lead us anywhere im sure that you know theres a High Percentage of people who arent show up to vary it today but i think people just stick to their parties and there might be a major difference in the end the problem is that if they cant agree this time it will be the last time i vote and they also shouldnt be paid any more. The snap election was called after incumbent leader pedro sunshine has failed to form a government with the left wing put they most party but analysts predict the deadlock will only worsen with smaller parties tipped to Enter Parliament for the 1st time that the far right box party is expected to make gains thanks to their hard line against catalan separatists the crisis was a central issue during campaigning critics of the president say sanchez a stance has been too soft something that could cost him crucial votes. From. Of more than election im joined by our correspondent lisa lewis she is in madrid for us now lisa we we heard some of the voters there in that piece i mean it certainly seems like for lections in 4 years is having its toll i mean people seem a bit fed up. Well absolutely theres a great sense of value to a city get here in madrid the voters weve been talking to at this polling station in the center of the capital today has been telling us yes i am turning out to vote because its my obligation as a citizen but im really not enthusiastic about it as i really hope that politicians will finally get that together one voter even said you know this is the last time i will vote if they dont manage to try and form a coalition and come back and come together as a stable government however when you look at the Participation Rate we had 1st because at 2 oclock in the afternoon there there the rate is at 38 percent thats 3 percent lower than in april this year certainly its gone down but if you look at Historical Data its not a sharp drop in participation and that means that up until now this situation the ongoing political deadlock doesnt seem to have had a huge impact on participation now weve seen of course those violent protests in barcelona from the Pro Independence movement what role was is the issue of catalonia playing in this election. Well this was actually the only very the only topic in the one week Election Campaign after the riots broke out in catalonia all the parties were talking about that that issue really divided the country even further with most parties taking a tough stance 1st of all the far right vox party that said that is now saying you know we need to suspend the one of the status and catch i know your other party is saying also we need to crack down on those violent protesters and the socialist party taking a more conciliatory approach because they actually traditionally gained quite high number of seats in catalonia catalonia the region which relates 48 seats in congress the highest share for one regional and so the socialists want to again parts of that vote but oversee that conciliatory approach has not gone down very well in the rest of spain so polls are indicating that although in the beginning right after interim Prime MinisterPedro Sanchez cold snap elections it was thought that he would win more seats than before hand now saying of the saying that hes likely to gain less seats than in april 20th this year or one party that is likely to gain some seats is that far right box why are they resonating so well this time around with voters. Well vox is running on an anti immigrant anti feminist approach its in favor of a strong central state really going back to the spanish nationalists nationalist roots is kind of waking up bad spirits from the past that that apparently was still there and many people and all saying you know at least theres one party that says out loud what real will think so its been gaining traction with this message and it remains to be seen if the party will really come 30 in parliament as some polls are predicting now.
