Sánchez took power via Spain's 1st-ever successful no-confidence vote!
In June 2018, Sánchez ousted PM Mariano Rajoy 180–169 — Spain's first successful no-confidence motion in modern democracy. He'd previously been removed as his own party's leader in 2016 before staging a dramatic comeback to the top.
