Election
[edit]The 15th Spanish general election was held on July 23, 2023. The People's Party became the largest party in the Congress of Deputies with 137 seats, overtaking the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party at 121 seats. However, neither major party nor their ostensible allies received enough seats to claim a parliamentary majority.
Parliamentary leadership
[edit]The Congress of Deputies and the Senate of the 15th Cortes Generales were constituted at 10am on Thursday, August 17, 2023. That same day, the members of the Bureaus of both Chambers were also appointed, by secret ballot and in ballot box, directed by the corresponding tables.[2]

In the event that this absolute majority is not reached, a second vote is carried out, also secret and in a ballot box, with the two candidates with the most votes and the one who obtains a simple majority of the votes will be elected President of the Congress of Deputies.[3]
