Staff from Spanish Socialist party winners of El Gordo lottery -will they redistribute the wealth?
None
MADRID - Staff from the Madrid headquarters of Spain's PSOE socialist party were among the top winners on Thursday of El Gordo, the world's biggest lottery jackpot with prizes totalling 2.31 billion euros ($2.41 billion) this year.
"A great end to a difficult year," the PSOE said on the party's official twitter account.
The party lost general elections in December last year and in June against the centre-right People's Party, registering its worst election results in 40 years.
Up by 70 million euros this year, El Gordo, Spanish for "The Fat One," is designed so as many people as possible get some win or at least break even with cash prizes doled out across the country.
