The 2024 European Parliament election in Spain will be held on Sunday, 9 June 2024, [4] as part of the EU-wide election to elect the 10th European Parliament. All 61 seats allocated to Spain as per the Treaty of Lisbon and the 2023 Council Decision establishing the composition of the European Parliament will be up for election. [lower-alpha 1]
61 members of the European Parliament are allocated to Spain as per the Treaty of Lisbon and subsequent acts. [lower-alpha 1] Voting is on the basis of universal suffrage, which comprises all nationals and resident non-national European citizens over 18 years of age and in full enjoyment of their political rights. [5] [6] [7] Amendments to the electoral law in 2022 abolished the "begged" or expat vote system (Spanish : voto rogado), under which Spaniards abroad were required to apply for voter registration before being permitted to vote. [8] The expat vote system was attributed responsibility for a major decrease in the turnout of Spaniards abroad during the years it had been in force. [9]
All seats will be elected using the D'Hondt method and a closed list proportional representation, with no electoral threshold being applied in order to be entitled to enter seat distribution. Seats are allocated to a single multi-member constituency comprising the entire national territory. [5] The use of the D'Hondt method may result in an effective threshold depending on the district magnitude. [10]

The electoral law allows for parties and federations registered in the interior ministry, coalitions and groupings of electors to present lists of candidates. Parties and federations intending to form a coalition ahead of an election are required to inform the relevant Electoral Commission within ten days of the election call. In order to be entitled to run, parties, federations, coalitions and groupings of electors need to secure the signature of at least 15,000 registered electors; this requirement can be lifted and replaced through the signature of at least 50 elected officials—deputies, senators, MEPs or members from the legislative assemblies of autonomous communities or from local city councils. Electors and elected officials are disallowed from signing for more than one list of candidates. [5]
Below is a list of the main parties and electoral alliances which will likely contest the election:
The tables below list opinion polling results in reverse chronological order, showing the most recent first and using the dates when the survey fieldwork was done, as opposed to the date of publication. Where the fieldwork dates are unknown, the date of publication is given instead. The highest percentage figure in each polling survey is displayed with its background shaded in the leading party's colour. If a tie ensues, this is applied to the figures with the highest percentages. The "Lead" column on the right shows the percentage-point difference between the parties with the highest percentages in a poll.
The table below lists weighted voting intention estimates. Refusals are generally excluded from the party vote percentages, while question wording and the treatment of "don't know" responses and those not intending to vote may vary between polling organisations. When available, seat projections determined by the polling organisations are displayed below (or in place of) the percentages in a smaller font.
