yeah, this is gonna need updating
Eh. Obviously not great and of course it will get worse but a scale from 5.2 to 5.6 is bound to look extreme in either direction.

Spain is by definition an imperfect democracy. You don-t vote for people, but for party lists, so all the people in a list are bound to party rule.
That’s how the majority of non-english speaking democracies work.
Some argue that voting for partys that represent ideologies over specific personalities leads to healthier democracy.
