All 47 seats in the es Cortes no were up for election. It was held concurrently with regional elections in twelve other autonomous communities and local elections all across Spain, as well as the 1987 European Parliament election. The election was won by the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE), which gained 2 seats and enlarged its absolute majority from 52% to 53% of the seats; Castilla–La Mancha thus became one of the few autonomous communities in the 1987 regional elections where the PSOE increased its parliamentary representation. The People's Alliance (AP), on the other hand, won just 34% of the share and 18 seats, after the People's Coalition had broken up in 1986. Both former AP partners, the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and the Liberal Party (PL), stood separately but failed to attract significant support. The Democratic and Social Centre (CDS), a party founded by former Prime Minister Adolfo Suárez, entered the es Cortes no for its first and only time, setting a record result for third parties in future regional elections with 4 seats and over 10% of the share. United Left (IU), an electoral coalition between the Communist Party of Spain and other left-wing parties formed in 1986, failed to gain any seats and dropped from the 6.9% it had in 1983 to 5.4%. Overview Electoral system The Cortes of Castilla–La Mancha were the devolved, unicameral legislature of the autonomous community of Castilla–La Mancha, having legislative power in regional matters as defined by the Spanish Constitution and the Castilian-Manchegan Statute of Autonomy, as well as the ability to vote confidence in or withdraw it from a President of the Junta of Communities.Statute of Autonomy of Castilla–La Mancha of 1982 Organic Law 9 Official State Gazette es 10 August 1982 https://www.boe.es/buscar/act.php?id=BOE-A-1982-20820&tn=1&p=19820816 15 September 2017 Voting for the Cortes was on the basis of universal suffrage, which comprised all nationals over 18 years of age, registered in Castilla–La Mancha and in full enjoyment of their political rights. The 47 members of the Cortes of Castilla–La Mancha were elected using the D'Hondt method and a closed list proportional representation, with a threshold of 3 percent of valid votesThe 1987 electoral law lowered the electoral threshold from five percent regionally to three percent by constituency.—which included blank ballots—being applied in each constituency. Parties not reaching the threshold were not taken into consideration for seat distribution. Additionally, the use of the D'Hondt method might result in an effective threshold over three percent, depending on the district magnitude.Gallagher Michael 30 July 2012 http://www.tcd.ie/Political_Science/staff/michael_gallagher/ElSystems/Docts/effthresh.php https://web.archive.org/web/20170730092518/http://www.tcd.ie/Political_Science/staff/michael_gallagher/ElSystems/Docts/effthresh.php dead 30 July 2017 Effective threshold in electoral systems Trinity College, Dublin 22 July 2017 Seats were allocated to constituencies, corresponding to the provinces of Albacete, Ciudad Real, Cuenca, Guadalajara and Toledo. Each constituency was entitled to an initial minimum of five seats, with the remaining 22 allocated among the constituencies in proportion to their populations.Castilla–La Mancha Electoral Law of 1986 Law 5 Official Journal of Castilla–La Mancha es 23 December 1986 https://www.boe.es/buscar/act.php?id=BOE-A-1987-2164&tn=1&p=19870105 15 September 2017 The electoral law provided that parties, federations, coalitions and groupings of electors were allowed to present lists of candidates. However, groupings of electors were required to secure the signature of at least 1 percent of the electors registered in the constituency for which they sought election. Electors were barred from signing for more than one list of candidates. Concurrently, parties and federations intending to enter in coalition to take part jointly at an election were required to inform the relevant Electoral Commission within ten days of the election being called.General Electoral System Organic Law of 1985 Organic Law 5 Official State Gazette es 19 June 1985 https://www.boe.es/buscar/act.php?id=BOE-A-1985-11672&tn=1&p=19870403 28 December 2016http://www.juntaelectoralcentral.es/cs/jec/documentos/LOREG_ENG Representation of the people Institutional Act www.juntaelectoralcentral.es Central Electoral Commission 16 June 2017 Election date The term of the Cortes of Castilla–La Mancha expired four years after the date of their previous election. Election day was to take place between the thirtieth and the sixtieth day from the expiration date of parliament and set so as to make it coincide with elections to the regional assemblies of other autonomous communities. The previous election was held on 8 May 1983, which meant that the legislature's term would have expired on 8 May 1987. The election was required to take place no later than the sixtieth day from the expiration date of parliament, setting the latest possible election date for the Cortes on 7 July 1987. The Cortes of Castilla–La Mancha could not be dissolved before the expiration date of parliament. In the event of an investiture process failing to elect a regional President within a two-month period from the first ballot, the candidate from the party with the highest number of seats was to be deemed automatically elected. Opinion polls The table below lists voting intention estimates 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. When available, seat projections determined by the polling organisations are displayed below (or in place of) the percentages in a smaller font; 24 seats were required for an absolute majority in the Cortes of Castilla–La Mancha (23 until 23 December 1986).
