Results breakdown of the Spanish general election, 2016 (Senate)
This is the results breakdown of the Senate election held in Spain on 26 June 2016.
The Spanish Senate at the time of the 2016 election was made up of 266 seats—208 directly elected by popular vote and 58 appointed by the regional legislatures.—All senators served for four-year terms, though regional legislatures could recall their appointees at any time. The appointment process of these seats depended on each legislature's parliamentary composition, and it was frequent for changes to happen each time regional elections were held.
Each voter could cast a plurality of votes—up to one, two or three, depending on the constituency—and political parties could also field several candidates each. As a result, vote and percentage results shown in the tables below will not add up to total figures.
