About this election
The electoral system
The 350 deputies were elected, as ever, by D'Hondt proportional representation in the 50 provinces and Ceuta and Melilla, with a 3% provincial threshold. The election was effectively a contest between two blocs: a right of PP and Vox, and a left of PSOE and the new Sumar platform, with the balance held by a handful of regional and nationalist parties whose dozen-odd seats would decide who could reach the 176 needed for a majority.
