The Supreme Court's decision to suspend cautiously thevoting rights of those who acceded to Spanish citizenship under the so-called "grandchildren's law" has provoked a long string of reactions. Therefore, as requested by Vox's appeal, they will not be able to vote in the general election on 29 November.

The PSOE respects the decision, but does not share it.

The PSOE spokeswoman, Montse Minguez, said on Tuesday that although her party respects the Supreme's decision, it does not share the suspension of the voting rights of those who acceded to Spanish citizenship under the so-called 'grandchildren's law'.

In his interview at RNE, he regretted the decision because those affected had voted in other elections and had been denied a fundamental right by depriving them of the right to vote.  

PP: "There is no democratic purity without a clean census."

The PP's leader, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has said that his party will send supervisors and proxies to "all polling stations" on November 29 and has warned that "there is no democratic cleanliness without a clean census."



Feijóo recalled that the Central Electoral Board (JEC) warned that this instruction was against the law and added that it is the body that must ensure "the cleanliness of the census." "There is no democratic cleansing if there is no census cleansing," he warned.

EH Bildu tacha the decision of "aberrant"

La portavoz de EH Bildu en el Congreso, Mertxe Aizpurua, ha calificado de "aberrante" que el Tribunal Supremo haya decidido mantener la suspensión cautelar del derecho a voto de las 163 000 personas nacionalizados por la 'ley de nietos'.

Entrevistada en Radio Euskadi, Aizpurua ha lamentado que haya "unos tribunales que intenten irrumpir en política, que son de parte, y que realmente denotan la escasa independencia del Poder Judicial que existe en este país, que está sometido a otros designios, a otros intereses y a otras voluntades."


The PNV calls for "celeridad"

La portavoz del PNV en el Congreso, Maribel Cowboy, ha pedido que el asunto se resuelve con "celeridad." 

En una entrevista concedida a Euskadi Irratia, la diputada jeltzale ha afirmado desconocer la afección del voto CERA en Euskadi y si la suspensión será determinante o no en el reparto de escaños.
