	Election Resources on the Internet: Elections to the Spanish Congress of Deputies
		A decisive factor in the election was the split of the center-right electorate between the PP and the PAR, which allowed the Socialists to prevail in all three constituencies.
		In the 1993 general election in Madrid, this legal requirement resulted in the exclusion of the Social Democratic Center (CDS) ticket from the constituency apportionment process, as the party - which lost all its seats in the election - fell 438 votes short of the three percent threshold.
		This system was drastically altered by the 1982 elections, in which the Socialists, led by Felipe González, won a sweeping victory with 202 seats in Congress, out of 350; AP became the major opposition party, while the UCD collapsed; the PCE also lost considerable ground in the election.

	Cuban's in the 1996 Presidential Election
		The 1996 election, more than any other to date, may come to be viewed as a harbinger of enhanced cooperation among Cuban-Americans and other Latino groups in terms of the fashioning of political agendas that are in some important respects unified.
		In the wake of the 1996 election, and various policy initiatives that are of particular concern to many Latinos, we may yet see evidence of change with regard to all three of the above criteria.
		The 1996 election results are the most obvious indication of this in that it reversed the overwhelming support Cubans have shown for the Republican party and its candidates in past elections, and was at the least more proximate to the electoral outcomes evident among Latinos at large.

	A balance sheet of the 13th May Basque elections In Defence of Democratic Rights
		The special character of these elections means that to be objective they should be compared not with the last Basque elections of 1998 (after ETA's cease-fire), but with last year's Spanish general elections.
		Meanwhile, the Spanish bourgeoisie is still defending the idea of the 'United and Strong' Spanish fatherland and would never accept the independence of Euskadi as this would fundamentally weaken the Spanish state and open the door to the independence of Catalunya, Galicia and possibly other regions or nationalities.
		The Basque elections of May 13th, 2001 have highlighted something is changing in the depths of society, both in the Basque Country and in the Spanish state as a whole, but which only occasionally comes to the surface.

		Whatever the definition, regional autonomy is a particularly unpleasant can of worms in Spanish politics, so it’s no surprise that the PP and PSOE each insists the other opened it.
		The PP insists that the devolution of power has essentially gone far enough; indeed, under the 1978 constitution, says Arístegui, “Spain is now the most decentralized country in Europe” with 17 autonomías that administer some 60% of public spending.
		Even after the PP took power in 1996 under Aznar, almost total responsibility for health and education has been passed on to all of them.
