Spain votes on 29 November.
Pedro Sánchez dissolved the Cortes on 6 October 2026, nine months before the legislature ran out.
Voters elect all 350 deputies by proportional representation in 52 provinces, and 209 senators by
limited vote. Then the Congress decides who governs.
PSOE and Sumar governed in coalition with 147 of 350 seats. Sánchez was invested in November 2023 with
179 votes, those of the coalition plus ERC, Junts, EH Bildu, PNV, BNG and CC. Junts withdrew its support in
October 2025, and the government lost a vote on two housing decrees before the dissolution.
