Methodological note

Definition of concepts

Abstention
Action of not participating in a vote. It is expressed as a number of people or percentage of the number of the electorate.
Electoral constituencies
Under current electoral regulations, electoral constituencies for referendums, legislative elections or elections to the Parliament of Catalonia, coincide with provinces. In local elections constituencies are municipalities and for elections to the European Parliament, the constituency is the State of Spain as a whole. The official body that regulates electoral operations in each constituency is the provincial electoral junta. In local elections the responsibility is that of the electoral juntas in each zone (which coincide with judicial regions). The zone juntas also have responsibilities in terms of other affairs, such as propaganda and the creation of documentation for those who intervene.
Turnout
Action of taking part in a vote. It is expressed as the number of people or percentage of the electorate.

Methodological aspects

The chapter on elections provides detailed information about the last time each type of election was held: European Parliament, general elections for the Congress of Deputies, Parliament of Catalonia, municipal elections and referendums. Also, with respect to previous editions, the results are presented for Catalonia as a whole in order to be able to offer comparable series.

In the tables only votes for parties that obtained representation are listed, while other parties, coalitions or groups of electors have been grouped as a single category of "others". The list of the different acronyms and meanings of the parties and coalitions that are included among said "others" in all of the tables have not been included in this Annual.

List of the acronyms and names of the candidates that do appear in the tables
CiU Convergència i Unió
ERC Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya
IC-V Iniciativa per Catalunya-Verds
PP Partit Popular
PSC Partit dels Socialistes de Catalunya
ECP En Comú Podem
CDC Convergència Democràtica de Catalunya
EN COMÚ PODEM En comú podem
DL Democràcia i Llibertat. Convergència. Demòcrates. Reagrupament
C's Ciutadans- Partit de la Ciutadania

It should be noted that the acronyms used in the table headings do not always correspond exactly to the names different parties or coalitions used in officially standing for elections.

For full details of all of the coalitions and groups, we refer readers to specific publications of an electoral nature.

In the county tables, the different candidatures are ordered from the highest to the lowest number of votes obtained for each of the parties in Catalonia as a whole and for each type of election.

Unavailable information is represented using the symbol ":". When the value is lower than that of the minimum unit to be able to estimate the statistical operation or if it effects statistical confidentiality, the symbol used is "..".
