Socialists of Prime Minister Jose Zapatero'win Spanish elections

Spanish state television said Prime Minister Jose Zapatero's party had won 172-176 seats in the 350-seat lower house, while the conservative opposition Popular Party won 148-152 seats. Other polls say the Socialists have won as many as 178, passing the 176-seat threshold needed for an absolute majority. That would spell the end of the hung parliament that has forced them to court smaller parties to pass laws.
