Next Andalusian regional election
Election in the Spanish region of Andalusia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A regional election will be held in Andalusia no later than 16 June 2030 to elect the 14th Parliament of the autonomous community. All 109 seats in the Parliament will be up for election. With the 2026 election having resulted in a hung parliament and with regional president Juanma Moreno reportedly unwilling to let far-right Vox into his government, Spanish media have speculated on the increasing likelihood of a repeat election taking place.[1][2][3][4][5]

Overview
Under the 2007 Statute of Autonomy, the Parliament of Andalusia is the unicameral legislature of the homonymous autonomous community, having legislative power in devolved matters, as well as the ability to grant or withdraw confidence from a regional president.[6] The electoral and procedural rules are supplemented by national law provisions.[7]
Date
The term of the Parliament of Andalusia expires four years after the date of its previous election, unless it is dissolved earlier. The election decree shall be issued no later than 25 days before the scheduled expiration date of parliament and published on the following day in the Official Gazette of the Regional Government of Andalusia (BOJA), with election day taking place 54 days after the decree's publication (barring any date within from 1 July to 31 August).[8] The previous election was held on 17 May 2026, which means that the chamber's term will expire on 17 May 2030. The election decree shall be published in the BOJA no later than 23 April 2030, setting the latest possible date for election day on 16 June 2030.
The regional president has the prerogative to dissolve the Parliament of Andalusia at any given time and call a snap election, provided that no motion of no confidence is in process and that dissolution does not occur before one year after a previous one.[9] In the event of an investiture process failing to elect a regional president within a two-month period from the first ballot, the Parliament is to be automatically dissolved and a fresh election called.[10]
The 2026 election led to the ruling People's Party (PP) under Juanma Moreno losing the absolute majority it had held during the four previous years, meaning it needed the support of the far-right Vox party to retain power.[11][12] Moreno's resistance to rely on Vox's support—in exchange of programmatic concessions he was vocally unwilling to accept—led to media outlets to comment on the possibility of a repeat election being required later in the year.[1][2][3][4][5]
Electoral system
Voting for the Parliament is based on universal suffrage, comprising all Spanish nationals over 18 years of age, registered in Andalusia and with full political rights, provided that they have not been deprived of the right to vote by a final sentence.[13]
The Parliament of Andalusia has a minimum of 109 seats, with electoral provisions fixing its size at that number. All are elected in eight multi-member constituencies—corresponding to the provinces of Almería, Cádiz, Córdoba, Granada, Huelva, Jaén, Málaga and Seville, each of which is assigned an initial minimum of eight seats and the remaining 45 distributed in proportion to population (with the number of seats in each province not exceeding two times that of any other)—using the D'Hondt method and closed-list proportional voting, with a three percent-threshold of valid votes (including blank ballots) in each constituency.[14] The use of this electoral method may result in a higher effective threshold depending on district magnitude and vote distribution.[15]
As a result of the aforementioned allocation, each Parliament constituency would be entitled the following seats (as of 11 December 2025):[a]
The law does not provide for by-elections to fill vacant seats; instead, any vacancies arising after the proclamation of candidates and during the legislative term will be filled by the next candidates on the party lists or, when required, by designated substitutes.[17]
Parties and candidates
The electoral law allows for parties and federations registered in the interior ministry, alliances and groupings of electors to present lists of candidates. Parties and federations intending to form an alliance are required to inform the relevant electoral commission within 10 days of the election call, whereas groupings of electors need to secure the signature of at least one percent of the electorate in the constituencies for which they seek election, disallowing electors from signing for more than one list.[18] Additionally, a balanced composition of men and women is required in the electoral lists through the use of a zipper system.[19]

Notes
- This seat allocation has been manually calculated by applying the electoral rules set out in the law, on the basis of the latest official population figures provided by the Spanish government as of 2026. As such, it should be deemed as a provisional, non-binding estimation. The definitive allocation will be determined by the election decree at the time of the parliament's dissolution.[16]
