Why It Matters

The Supreme Court has suspended the right to vote of 163,000 people naturalized under the law of grandchildren who do not prove that their ancestors suffered exile.

Font size

After digesting the Supreme Court's decision to maintain the suspension of voting for the beneficiaries of the so-called grandchildren law, which will leave more than 163,000 people residing abroad without this right, the Government on Tuesday tried to focus on the "problem" of the "political use" that they believe the right is making of this issue. "It is very serious and irresponsible to introduce the suspicion of pucherazo," say Moncloa sources. "That's Trumpism," they add.

In Pedo Sánchez's team they insist that "whoever had to leave" due to the Civil War or the dictatorship "left with what they had" and that "the presumption of exile was absolutely normal" in the face of a resolution that establishes that only those nationalized in this way who can prove that their ancestors suffered exile will be able to be part of the November 29 electoral census. However, even in private they avoid criticizing the judges who have endorsed the orders: "We are not going to speak out."

When asked by journalists at the press conference after the Council of Ministers, the Government spokesperson, Elma Saiz, indicated that it is "being studied" whether the State Attorney's Office presents an appeal to the Constitutional Court.

Vox shakes up the electoral map: close to the PSOE in Andalusia, surpasses it in Murcia and overtakes the PP in Catalonia

A survey reveals that the PSOE and Sumar repeat at minimum levels after the electoral advance, while Vox reaches a record at the expense of the PP. Feijóo is growing as a presidential option for 60% of Spaniards and Abascal ties with Sánchez and Díaz. The alternative left loses presence in six communities and adds only nine seats, 23 less than in 2023. The territorial impact alters the traditional balances, with Vox advancing in Andalusia, Castilla y León, Castilla-La Mancha, Aragón and Extremadura, while the Basque Country and Galicia resist as non-Voxist bastions. The PSOE falls from 121 to 103 seats and Catalan socialism loses three deputies compared to 2023.
