19 July 2012, in the Congreso

Spending cuts and tax hikes to cut Spain's public deficit in 2012 

More votes in favour 180 yes · 131 no · 1 abst.

More votes in favour: 180 yes and 131 no, a margin of 49. 1 abstention and 38 did not vote.

BOE step 7 of 7 · Passed Royal Decree-Law 20/2012, of 13 July, on measures to guarantee budgetary stability and to promote competitiveness.

When we cannot be sure which majority was needed, we do not say whether this means it “passed”: the official file does not say.

  • The data comes from the open files of the Congreso, the Senate and the BOE, unaltered.
  • Each deputy’s province is the one of their seat on the day of the vote.
  • We only say “passed” or “rejected” when the majority needed is certain; otherwise we say which side had more votes.
