Spanish elections and politics

What type of voter is 2016 UPyD voter? Who still votes on them? They will again have worse score than that party with cute cow in logo.

How the hell it is possible that Spanish electoral commissions needed only 3.5 hours to count all votes? Do you have any texts in English about counting system in Spain?

I remember that last elections also it was fast but still for me this is unbelievable.

98.06% counted. PP/C's/PNV/PNC still at 175. One additional vote still necessary for the formation of a right-wing government.

What is PNC? Canary Coalition?

Yeah.

It seems that Spain is more advanced in that regard than other western countries. If I'm able to find some text in English on the counting system, I'll put a link or something

I would be grateful!

Velasco or jaichind, can you tell us something more about Galician and Basque elections this month?

Rajoy and his team coped with that issue probably in the most stupid way it was possible.

Why does PP do better among women?

Maybe this is because women are living longer than man and PP is generally party of the elderly people?

What for would one have party membership if he is not some sort of elected politician, even such as some small town mayor or county leader?

I am not sure if I should ask this question because somehow I have feeling that I have already asked that question but:


How UPyD is currently doing? Are they relevant anywhere?

What was the changes in healthcare system which PP government implemented in 2012. As I can see PSOE now is claiming that they succeeded in reverting them and I wonder what was that about.

From what I can tell it was basically cuts. There was a 10 000 million € cut early in Rajoy's tenure and healthcare investments are still lower than in 2009, both as a % of GDP and in total. There have also been increases in waiting lists for treatments.

The only "change" Rajoy brought was that illegal inmigrants wouldn't be allowed to use healthcare other than for emergency purposes. However reverting that was one of the earliest measures taken by the Sánchez government so maybe other than fully implementing it I don't know what they can do.

Oh ok. Thank you for your answer.

That may be stupid question to ask, especially taking into consideration that Spanish politics recently become stupidly dynamic and interesting: how is PACMA doing these days? And VOX?
