About elections in Spain
I'm Bartłomiej Paruzel, and I built ElectioMap to map national elections around the world. This is the Spain hub on ElectioMap — it brings together the 7 Spain elections I cover, each with the official results, vote and turnout shares to two decimal places, and an interactive map you can explore region by region.
Spain (the Kingdom of Spain) is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy in south-western Europe and the European Union's fourth-largest economy, a member of the EU, the eurozone, NATO and the Schengen Area. Under the democratic constitution of 1978, which followed the death of the dictator Francisco Franco and the transition to democracy, King Felipe VI is a ceremonial head of state while executive power rests with a Prime Minister (President of the Government) who is invested by, and accountable to, parliament. Legislative power lies with the bicameral Cortes Generales: the directly elected Congress of Deputies (Congreso de los Diputados) of 350 members, which invests and can dismiss the government and is the decisive chamber, and the Senate (Senado), a partly territorial upper house with weaker powers.
The Congress is elected for a four-year term (though the prime minister can call an early election) by closed-list proportional representation using the D'Hondt method. Crucially, the constituency is the province: the 350 seats are distributed across Spain's 50 provinces plus the North African cities of Ceuta and Melilla, with every province guaranteed a minimum number of seats before the rest are shared by population. A 3% threshold applies within each province. Because many provinces are small and elect only a handful of deputies, the system rewards the two largest national parties and parties whose vote is geographically concentrated — above all the regional nationalists — while penalising evenly spread smaller parties. By contrast, members of the European Parliament are elected in a single nationwide constituency by pure proportional representation, so the EP vote is the clearest read on raw national support.
From 1982 Spanish politics was a two-party contest between the social-democratic Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) and the conservative People's Party (PP). That order shattered in 2015, when the anti-austerity left Podemos and the liberal Citizens (Ciudadanos) broke the duopoly amid the fallout of the financial crisis and corruption scandals, ushering in a decade of fragmentation, repeat elections (2015→2016 and April→November 2019) and coalition or minority government. The far-right Vox entered parliament in April 2019, the first such force since the transition, and Podemos's space was later occupied by Sumar. Spanish politics is also shaped by powerful regional and pro-independence parties — the Catalan ERC and Junts, the Basque PNV and EH Bildu, the Galician BNG and the Canarian Coalition — whose support is often decisive in investing a prime minister. Pedro Sánchez (PSOE) became prime minister in 2018 through a no-confidence motion against Mariano Rajoy, governed in coalition with Unidas Podemos from 2020, and was re-invested in 2023 with Sumar and a patchwork of nationalist votes; the 2017 Catalan independence crisis loomed over the whole period.
Elections are administered by the Ministry of the Interior and supervised by the independent Central Electoral Board (Junta Electoral Central), with official results published at infoelectoral.interior.gob.es. This page collects Spanish national election results since 2015 — the five general (Congress) elections and the European Parliament elections — each with an interactive map of the vote by autonomous community.
Each election listed here has its own page with the full breakdown by party or candidate and an interactive map of the result.
Every figure on ElectioMap is taken from the official electoral authority for Spain — the national election commission or equivalent body that certifies the count. I enter vote and turnout percentages exactly as published, to two decimal places and without rounding, and show seat totals wherever a chamber is being filled. When ElectioMap covers an election live, the page updates automatically as official figures are released. For the full sourcing and update policy, see Data & Methodology and the Editorial Policy.
