The Basque parties will not have to queue up to lead the electoral lists
From now on, the order of publication shall be established in each district on the basis of the results obtained in the last elections, and the most voted parties shall be placed first.
The Basque Parliament has adopted a legislative amendmentto put an end to the usual image at each election meeting: queues of political representatives from early morning to register before anyone else.
Until now, it was necessary to queue up to preside over the order of publication of the nominations, which has ended with today's decision, so it will not be the time of their surrender that determines their position on the official lists.
From now on, the order of publication shall be established in each district on the basis of the results obtained in the last elections, and the most voted parties shall be placed first.
The reform, promoted by PNV, EH Bildu and PSE-EE, has also been supported by the PP, while Sinte and Vox voted against it.
This amendment affects the laws governing elections to the Basque Parliament and to the General Assemblies of Álava, Bizkaia and Gipuzkoa, and will apply to the next autonomous and foral elections, but not to municipal elections, which are regulated by State regulations.
According to the advocacy groups, the aim is to provide greater legal certainty to the system and to avoid symbolic practices such as queues of records, which have hitherto appeared in the Official Gazette of the Basque Country and in electoral documentation. The summary advocates maintaining a draw to establish order, considering that the new system favours the larger parties.
