An election was held in Spain on 25 May 2014 as part of the concurrent EU-wide election to the 8th European Parliament. All 54 seats allocated to the Spanish constituency as per the Treaty of Lisbon were up for election.
The People's Party (PP) emerged as the largest party overall, albeit with its worst nationwide election result in 25 years with a mere 26.1% of the share and 16 seats, losing 2.6 million votes and 8 seats from its 2009 result. The Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) lost 9 seats and 2.5 million votes, obtaining just 23% of the total party vote and 14 seats. This would represent the party's worst election result in recent history until the 2015 general election, in which it scored a new low. Up to 8 additional political forces obtained representation. Pablo Iglesias' newly formed Podemos party (Spanish for "We can") turned into the election night surprise by winning 5 seats and 1,253,837 votes (8.0% of the share), an unprecedented result for a party only 4 months old and contesting an election for the first time. Podemos's surge and the extent of PP and PSOE collapse were not foreseen by opinion polls during the campaign, which had predicted higher support for the two dominant parties and a weaker performance of Podemos.
United Left's Plural Left coalition and Union, Progress and Democracy (UPyD) obtained some of their best historical results, with 10.0% and 6.5% of the vote and 6 and 4 seats, respectively. However, this was far from the major election breakthrough that polls had predicted throughout 2013 and in early 2014. From this point onwards both parties would lose support in opinion polls and in successive regional and local elections. The Citizens (C's) party of Albert Rivera, then marginalised as a Catalonia-only party and after several failed attempts to jump into national politics, managed to obtain 3.2% of the share and 2 seats. Just as Podemos, it would grow in support in the run up to the next general election and become a major political actor by 2015.
Overview
Electoral system
Voting for the European Parliament in Spain was based on universal suffrage, which comprised all Spanish nationals and resident non-national European citizens over 18 years of age with full political rights, provided that they had not been deprived of the right to vote by a final sentence, nor were legally incapacitated.LOREG 1985 arts. 2–3 & 210; Lisbon 2007 art. 2, amending art. 17 of the EC Treaty (FEU Treaty). Amendments in 2011 required non-resident citizens to apply for voting, a system known as "begged" voting (es Voto rogado).LOREG 1985 art. 75.Reig Pellicer Naiara 16 December 2015 http://www.cafebabel.co.uk/politics/article/spanish-elections-begging-for-the-right-to-vote.html https://web.archive.org/web/20160415142104/http://www.cafebabel.co.uk/politics/article/spanish-elections-begging-for-the-right-to-vote.html usurped 15 April 2016 Spanish elections: Begging for the right to vote cafebabel.co.uk 17 July 2017
54 European Parliament seats were allocated to Spain as per the Treaty of Lisbon.LOREG 1985 art. 215; Lisbon 2007 art. 1, introducing art. 9A of the EU Treaty; EUCO Dec. 2013/312 2013 art. 3. All were elected in a single multi-member constituency—comprising the entire national territory—using the D'Hondt method and closed-list proportional voting, with no electoral threshold.LOREG 1985 arts. 214–216. The use of this electoral method resulted in an 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
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.LOREG 1985 arts. 46, 48 & 217.

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. In order to be entitled to run, parties, federations, alliances and groupings of electors needed to secure the signature of at least 15,000 registered electors; this requirement could 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 were disallowed from signing for more than one list.LOREG 1985 art. 220. Additionally, a balanced composition of men and women was required in the electoral lists, so that candidates of either sex made up at least 40 percent of the total composition.LOREG 1985 art. 44 bis.

Events and issues
The electoral campaign started at 12:00 am on 9 May. However, a traffic accident in Badajoz the previous night resulting in the deaths of five people—one adult and four children—and 12 injured forced the suspension of the start of the campaign in Extremadura.EFE 8 May 2014 https://www.abc.es/local-extremadura/20140508/abci-extremadura-suspende-arranque-electoral-201405082354.html El inicio de la campaña electoral en Extremadura queda suspendido es ABC 12 July 2024

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.

Aftermath
Outcome
The election resulted in a massive loss of support for the two main political parties of Spain, which together fell from a combined total of 80.9% in the previous European election to a record-low 49.1% of the vote (a net total of −31.8 pp, about −16.0 each one).Elordi Cué Carlos 26 May 2014 https://elpais.com/politica/2014/05/25/actualidad/1401029782_739281.html Pierde el bipartidismo tras el fuerte castigo de los electores a PP y PSOE El País Madrid 12 July 2024 Podemos, a party founded four months previously running on an anti-austerity platform, won an unprecedented 8.0% of the vote and 5 out of 54 seats to the European Parliament; the best result ever scored in Spain by a newly created party in its first electoral test.Jiménez Gálvez José María Kadner López Marien 26 May 2014 https://elpais.com/politica/2014/05/25/actualidad/1401009854_060215.html Podemos se convierte en la sorpresa y logra cinco escaños en Estrasburgo es El País Madrid 12 July 2024
The People's Party (PP) came out on top in most autonomous communities except in Andalusia, Asturias and Extremadura, where the PSOE won; the Basque Country, where the PNV prevailed; and Catalonia, where ERC scored first place for the first time in 80 years. In these last two communities the PP polled in fourth and fifth places, respectively. Significant were, however, their results in Madrid, Valencian Community and Murcia; in the first two it polled below the 30% mark for the first time in 25 years, while in the latter it experienced a spectacular drop in support, falling from the 60% mark it had maintained since the 2000 general election to below 40% of the vote. Also, except for the autonomous cities of Ceuta and Melilla, it didn't surpass the 40% mark in any region, not even its strongholds of Galicia (where it polled a mere 35%), Castile and León or Castile-La Mancha (38% in both of them).
The Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE), except for those communities where it won, experienced a significant drop in support. It suffered most notably in Catalonia and the Basque Country (where it finished in third place). In Catalonia in particular, the PSOE's sister party, the Socialists' Party of Catalonia (PSC), had previously won all general and European elections held in the region—except for those of 1994 and 2011, where it polled second just behind Convergence and Union.
Other parties benefiting from the collapse in support for the PP and PSOE parties were United Left-led Plural Left (IP) coalition, which with a 10.0% obtained its best results nationally since 1996, and Union, Progress and Democracy (UPyD), whose 6.5% would remain the highest the party would win in a nationwide election before their decline throughout 2015. The Citizens party (C's) entered the European Parliament with 2 seats and 3.2% of the vote.Gutiérrez-Franco Vera 25 May 2014 https://elpais.com/politica/2014/05/25/actualidad/1401010654_800348.html IU y UPyD confirman su subida y se postulan como bisagras para 2015 es El País Madrid 12 July 2024
Bipartisanship crisis
The election backlash had immediate consequences on the Socialist party (PSOE), which scored its worst result ever in an election held at a nationwide scale: a bare 23.0% of the vote, compared to the already disappointing results the party had obtained in the general election of 2011, with 28.8%. Alfredo Pérez Rubalcaba, which had won the party's leadership on a 2012 party federal congress, announced his intention to resign from his post after his party holds an extraordinary federal congress on 19–20 July to elect a new leadership.Garea Fernando 26 May 2014 https://elpais.com/politica/2014/05/26/actualidad/1401102768_248408.html Rubalcaba tira la toalla y convoca en julio un congreso extraordinario tras la debacle es El País Madrid 12 July 2024 Rubalcaba also announced his intention not to run in the primaries that would elect the party's candidate for the next general election.Garat Ketty 25 May 2014 https://www.libertaddigital.com/espana/politica/2014-05-26/valenciano-no-descarta-que-rubalcaba-dimita-manana-1276519599/ Rubalcaba anunciará este lunes que no se presenta a las primarias es Libertad Digital 12 July 2024 Several regional party leaders followed suit and announced their intention to hold regional extraordinary party congresses as well.Gorospe Pedro 27 May 2014 https://elpais.com/politica/2014/05/27/actualidad/1401180642_767165.html Patxi López también se va y pide "una revolución" es El País Bilbao 12 July 2024
On the other hand, People's Party (PP) leaders refused to publicly acknowledge the negative results of the party in the election, despite losing 40% of its 2009 vote and scoring the worst result the party has obtained in a national election since 1989, instead opting to highlight the fact that "they had won the election".J.G.M. 25 May 2014 https://www.abc.es/elecciones-europeas/20140525/abci-canete-cospedal-reaccion-201405252337.html Cospedal destaca que ha ganado el partido que apoya al Gobierno es ABC 12 July 2024 Despite this, the party had to cancel the victory celebration that was to be held in their national headquarters in Madrid due to the poor affluence of party supporters which went to the place, an evidence of worse than expected election results.Muñoz F. 26 May 2014 https://www.abc.es/elecciones-europeas/20140526/abci-celebraciones-noche-electoral-201405260019.html Sin balcón en Génova ni ovación en Ferraz, así ha terminado la noche electoral más fría es ABC 12 July 202426 May 2014 https://www.lasexta.com/noticias/nacional/cancela-celebracion-genova-pese-anunciar-victoria-electoral_20140526572649a04beb28d44601f7d4.html El PP cancela la celebración en Génova es laSexta 12 July 2024 Concerns arose among party regional leaders on the prospects of such electoral results being displayed at the local and regional level in the May 2015 elections, something which could potentially force the PP out from the government of party strongholds' such as Madrid and Valencia.Europa Press 26 May 2014 https://www.elconfidencial.com/espana/2014-05-26/aguirre-y-fabra-preocupados-por-los-resultados-apuestan-por-hacer-muchas-reflexiones_136909/ Aguirre y Fabra, preocupados por los resultados del PP, llaman a la reflexión es El Confidencial 12 July 2024

Abdication of King Juan Carlos I
Juan Carlos I of Spain#Abdication
One week after the election, Spanish King Juan Carlos I announced his intention to abdicate in favour of his son, Felipe.Junquera Natalia Elordi Cué Carlos 2 June 2014 https://elpais.com/politica/2014/06/02/actualidad/1401697005_470180.html El Rey abdica El País Madrid 12 July 2024 Allegedly, the election results had no influence in the King's abdication. Rather, the elderly monarch had taken the decision the day of his 76th birthday in January and had spoken about it with Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy on 31 March and with opposition leader Rubalcaba three days later, but it was not until after the election that he announced it in order not to affect the electoral process.Junquera Natalia 2 June 2014 https://elpais.com/politica/2014/06/02/actualidad/1401732939_673840.html El Rey tomó la decisión en enero y encargó un informe del proceso es El País Madrid 12 July 20245 June 2014 http://www.estrelladigital.es/articulo/actualidad/resultado-elecciones-no-ha-influido-abdicacion-rey/20140605191246199107.html El resultado de las elecciones no ha influido en la abdicación del Rey es Estrella Digital 12 July 2024 However, abdication was not regulated under the Spanish Constitution of 1978 and thus required the approval of an Organic Law on the matter.2 June 2014 http://www.lavanguardia.com/politica/20140602/54408591870/gobierno-prepara-ley-organica-cenida-regular-abdicacion-juan-carlos.html El Gobierno prepara una ley orgánica ceñida a regular la abdicación de Don Juan Carlos es La Vanguardia 12 July 20242 June 2014 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-27662301 King Juan Carlos of Spain abdicates BBC News 12 July 2024 PP, PSOE, UPyD, Canarian Coalition (CC), Asturias Forum (FAC) and the Navarrese People's Union (UPN) all pledged their support to the law's approval.3 June 2014 Garea Fernando Elordi Cué Carlos https://elpais.com/politica/2014/06/03/actualidad/1401792317_438032.html La sucesión tendrá casi el 90% de síes es El País Madrid 12 July 2024 Attention then turned to the PSOE leader Alfredo Pérez Rubalcaba as rumours spread about him not resigning right away the day after the election to keep controlling the party so as to ensure the affirmative vote of its parliamentary group on the law.2 June 2014 https://www.eldiario.es/politica/rubalcaba-dimitio-controlar-psoe-abdicacion_1_4843493.html Rubalcaba no dimitió para controlar al PSOE en el proceso de abdicación es eldiario.es 12 July 2024 This was received with criticism from several of the party's regional federations but also from its members and the Socialist Youth, openly republican, who demanded the party ask for a referendum on the monarchy issue.E.B. 2 June 2014 https://www.elboletin.com/nacional-99344-abdicacion-rey-cisma-filas-psoe-html/ La renuncia del Rey desata otro cisma en las filas del PSOE es El Boletín 12 July 20242 June 2014 https://www.eldiario.es/politica/rajoy-rubalcaba-pactaron-garantizarle-tranquilo_1_4843582.html Rajoy, Rubalcaba y Casa Real pactaron el relevo tranquilo de Juan Carlos I es eldiario.es 12 July 2024
Furthermore, there was speculation on the opportunity of the King abdicating at the time he did. In fact, due to the crisis of the bipartisanship self-evidenced by the European election results, the idea of the King announcing his decision before the 2015 general election, when the election results could translate into PP and PSOE losing a host of seats in the Congress of Deputies, making the building of large majorities more difficult, became extended among public opinion.Zarzalejos José Antonio 2 June 2014 https://blogs.elconfidencial.com/espana/notebook/2014-06-02/el-rey-abdica-para-salvar-a-la-monarquia-de-la-crisis-institucional_139610/ El Rey abdica para salvar a la Monarquía de la crisis institucional es El Confidencial 12 July 2024 The fact that the future of the PSOE's position on the monarchy, as well as the future of the party itself, looked uncertain after the debacle in the European election and Rubalcaba's resignation seemed to have also played a key part in precipitating the King's decision.9 June 2014 https://www.vozpopuli.com/espana/don_juan_carlos_i_de_espana-abdicacion_del_rey-partido_socialista_obrero_espanol_psoe_0_704329563.html El Rey confía a sus amigos que la caída de Rubalcaba fue lo que precipitó la abdicación es VozPópuli 12 July 2024 Prime Minister Rajoy said, on the day the King announced he would abdicate, that "This is the best time [for it to happen], within a short time the Prince shall be proclaimed King".Elordi Cué Carlos 2 June 2014 https://elpais.com/politica/2014/06/02/actualidad/1401702157_721435.html Rajoy: "This is the best time, within a short time the Prince shall be proclaimed King" es El País Madrid 12 July 2024
