Fresh elections called for Spain to break political deadlock
A new general election will be held in Spain on 26 June 2016 after none of the political parties succeeded in forming a majority government.
The election of 20 December 2015 was inconclusive. Mariano Rajoy (pictured) of the Popular Party became acting president and months of negotiations between the political parties ensued to try to form a coalition.
However, the result was political deadlock and this morning (Tuesday 3 May) the King signed the decree to confirm the next general election.
Parites have until 13 May to announce any coalition agreements, until 18 May to present their candidates, and campaigning will begin on 10 June. The next president could be inaugurated in mid-August.

We are so many foreigners that our vote can make a difference!
