A regional election was held in Galicia on 19 June 2005 to elect the 7th Parliament of the autonomous community. All 75 seats in the Parliament were up for election.
Overview
Under the 1981 Statute of Autonomy, the Parliament of Galicia was the unicameral legislature of the homonymous autonomous community, having legislative power in devolved matters, as well as the ability to grant or withdraw confidence from a regional president.Statute 1981 arts. 10 & 13. The electoral and procedural rules were supplemented by national law provisions.LEG 1985 final prov. 1.
Date
The term of the Parliament of Galicia expired four years after the date of its previous election, unless it was dissolved earlier. The election decree was required to be issued no later than 25 days before the scheduled expiration date of parliament and published on the following day in the Official Journal of Galicia (DOG), with election day taking place 54 days after the decree's publication.Statute 1981 art. 11; LEG 1985 art. 12 (suppl. supplemented by LOREG 1985 art. 42). The previous election was held on 21 October 2001, which meant that the chamber's term would have expired on 21 October 2005. The election decree was required to be published in the DOG no later than 27 September 2005, setting the latest possible date for election day on 20 November 2005.
The regional president had the prerogative to dissolve the Parliament of Galicia at any given time and call a snap election, provided that it did not occur before one year after a previous one under this procedure. In the event of an investiture process failing to elect a regional president within a two-month period from the first ballot, the Parliament was to be automatically dissolved and a fresh election called.LJP 1983 arts. 17 & 24.
The Parliament of Galicia was officially dissolved on 26 April 2005 with the publication of the corresponding decree in the DOG, setting election day for 19 June and scheduling for the chamber to reconvene on 18 July.Decree 77/2005 2005 arts. 1–2 & 5.
Electoral system
Voting for the Parliament was based on universal suffrage, comprising all Spanish nationals over 18 years of age, registered in Galicia and with full political rights, provided that they had not been deprived of the right to vote by a final sentence, nor were legally incapacitated.Statute 1981 art. 11; LEG 1985 art. 2 (suppl. supplemented by LOREG 1985 arts. 2–3).
The Parliament of Galicia had a minimum of 60 and a maximum of 80 seats, with electoral provisions fixing its size at 75. All were elected in four multi-member constituencies—corresponding to the provinces of A Coruña, Lugo, Ourense and Pontevedra, each of which was assigned an initial minimum of 10 seats and the remaining 35 distributed in proportion to population—using the D'Hondt method and closed-list proportional voting, with a five percent-threshold of valid votes (including blank ballots) in each constituency.Statute 1981 art. 11; LEG 1985 arts. 8–10. The use of this electoral method resulted in a higher effective threshold depending on district magnitude and vote distribution.Gallagher Michael 30 July 2012 http://www.tcd.ie/Political_Science/staff/michael_gallagher/ElSystems/Docts/effthresh.php Effective threshold in electoral systems Trinity College Dublin Dublin https://web.archive.org/web/20170730092518/http://www.tcd.ie/Political_Science/staff/michael_gallagher/ElSystems/Docts/effthresh.php 22 July 2017 30 July 2017
As a result of the aforementioned allocation, each Parliament constituency was entitled the following seats:Decree 77/2005 2005 art. 3.
Seats Constituencies 24 A Coruña 22 Pontevedra 15 Lugo 14 Ourense
The law did not provide for by-elections to fill vacant seats; instead, any vacancies arising after the proclamation of candidates and during the legislative term were filled by the next candidates on the party lists or, when required, by designated substitutes.LEG 1985 art. 11 (suppl. supplemented by LOREG 1985 arts. 46 & 48).

Parties and candidates
The electoral law allowed for parties and federations registered in the interior ministry, alliances and groupings of electors to present lists of candidates. Parties and federations intending to form an alliance were required to inform the relevant electoral commission within 10 days of the election call, whereas groupings of electors needed to secure the signature of at least one percent of the electorate in the constituencies for which they sought election, disallowing electors from signing for more than one list.LEG 1985 art. 21 (suppl. supplemented by LOREG 1985 art. 44).

Opinion polls
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.
Voting intention estimates
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; 38 seats were required for an absolute majority in the Parliament of Galicia.
