MADRID (Reuters) - Spanish newcomer party Ciudadanos would come a close second to the ruling People's Party, and would probably be the main kingmaker, if a national election due in December was held now, an opinion poll showed on Sunday.

Ciudadanos, a market-friendly party founded nearly a decade ago in the northeastern region of Catalonia but which expanded nationally only earlier this year, has been steadily gaining support over recent months on a message of moderate change.
