Official wording of what was voted on: Moción por la que se insta al Gobierno a realizar las gestiones oportunas para la liberación de los 75 presos políticos en Venezuela, así como frenar las reiteradas inhabilitaciones de dirigentes opositores, a fin de que puedan concurrir a las próximas elecciones del 6 de diciembre de 2015 e impulsar la presencia de observadores internacionales para garantizar la fiabilidad de dichos comicios.

  • 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.
