Tomorrow is a day of reflection when no campaigning is allowed, ahead of voting on Sunday
The leader of the Partido Popular, Mariano Rajoy, who told us in both the TV debates against José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero about a young girl in his head, who he thinks about when he thinks of the future of Spain, has now named his imaginary friend. She is called Victoria Esperanza. He revealed the name at a rally in Valencia yesterday, and said that she was going to win the election.

Zapatero was campaigning in Barcelona yesterday where he met up with Felipe González in the Palau Sant Jordi in the city before a fired-up 40,000 supporters. ‘This rally will send me on to victory’, said Zapatero.

Today is the last day of campaigning, as under Spanish law tomorrow must be a day for reflection when no campaigning is allowed. Some media report this morning that the two main parties, PSOE and PP, end the campaign in a dead heat, although the last polls showed a continued small but stable Socialist lead.

Zapatero has called on his followers to get out and vote, with his party obviously concerned about voter apathy. He said he will be out until the last moment, until Midnight, asking for a ample majority.
The Partido Popular supporters appear to be better organised and more enthusiastic about voting.
