The 2015 Asturian regional election was held on 24 May 2015 to elect the 10th General Junta of the Principality of Asturias. All 45 seats in the General Junta were up for election. Because regional elections in the Principality of Asturias were mandated for the fourth Sunday of May every four years, the 2012 snap election did not alter the term of the four-year legislature starting in 2011. It was held concurrently with regional elections in twelve other autonomous communities and local elections all throughout Spain.
Final results showed the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) with 26.5% of the vote (14 seats), the People's Party (PP) in second with 21.6% (11 seats) and newly created Podemos (Spanish for "We can") in a close third with 19.1% (9 seats). The Asturias Forum (FAC), which had ruled the community in the 2011–12 period, saw a dramatic loss of support, falling to fifth place with 8.2% and 3 seats, overcame by a stagnant United Left (IU/IX) and in a draw with up-and-coming Citizens (C's).
Socialist leader Javier Fernández was able to retain the regional government thanks to the support of United Left, after PP and FAC joined their votes against the PSOE and with Podemos supporting its own candidate.
Overview
Electoral system
The General Junta of the Principality of Asturias was the devolved, unicameral legislature of the autonomous community of Asturias, having legislative power in regional matters as defined by the Spanish Constitution and the Asturian Statute of Autonomy, as well as the ability to vote confidence in or withdraw it from a regional president.Ley Orgánica 7/1981, de 30 de diciembre, de Estatuto de Autonomía del Principado de Asturias Organic Law 7 es 30 December 1981 https://www.boe.es/buscar/act.php?id=BOE-A-1982-634&tn=1&p=20100717 14 March 2017 Voting for the General Junta was on the basis of universal suffrage, which comprised all nationals over 18 years of age, registered in Asturias and in full enjoyment of their political rights. Additionally, Asturians abroad were required to apply for voting before being permitted to vote, a system known as "begged" or expat vote (es Voto rogado).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
The 45 members of the General Junta of the Principality of Asturias were elected using the D'Hondt method and a closed list proportional representation, with an electoral threshold of three percent of valid votes—which included blank ballots—being applied in each constituency. Seats were allocated to constituencies, which were established as follows:
Central District, comprising the municipalities of Aller, Avilés, Bimenes, Carreño, Caso, Castrillón, Corvera de Asturias, Gijón, Gozón, Illas, Las Regueras, Langreo, Laviana, Lena, Llanera, Mieres, Morcín, Noreña, Oviedo, Proaza, Quirós, Ribera de Arriba, Riosa, San Martín del Rey Aurelio, Santo Adriano, Sariego, Siero, Sobrescobio and Soto del Barco.
Eastern District, comprising the municipalities of Amieva, Cabrales, Cabranes, Cangas de Onís, Caravia, Colunga, Llanes, Nava, Onís, Parres, Peñamellera Alta, Peñamellera Baja, Piloña, Ponga, Ribadedeva, Ribadesella and Villaviciosa.
Western District, comprising the municipalities of Allande, Belmonte de Miranda, Boal, Candamo, Cangas del Narcea, Castropol, Coaña, Cudillero, Degaña, El Franco, Grado, Grandas de Salime, Ibias, Illano, Muros de Nalón, Navia, Pesoz, Pravia, Salas, San Martín de Oscos, Santa Eulalia de Oscos, San Tirso de Abres, Somiedo, Tapia de Casariego, Taramundi, Teverga, Tineo, Valdés, Vegadeo, Villanueva de Oscos, Villayón and Yernes y Tameza.
Each constituency was allocated an initial minimum of two seats, with the remaining 39 being distributed in proportion to their populations.Ley 14/1986, de 26 de diciembre, sobre régimen de elecciones a la Junta General del Principado de Asturias Law 14 es 26 December 1986 https://www.boe.es/buscar/act.php?id=BOE-A-1987-3910&tn=1&p=19910327 14 March 2017
As a result of the aforementioned allocation, each General Junta constituency was entitled the following seats:Boletín Oficial del Principado de Asturias 75 31 March 2015 es Decreto 3/2015, de 30 de marzo, del Presidente del Principado, por el que se convocan elecciones a la Junta General del Principado de Asturias https://sede.asturias.es/bopa/2015/03/31/2015-05816.pdf 1579-7252 1

In smaller constituencies, the use of the electoral method resulted in an effective threshold based on the district magnitude and the distribution of votes among candidacies.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
Election date
The term of the General Junta of the Principality of Asturias expired four years after the date of its previous election. Elections to the General Junta were fixed for the fourth Sunday of May every four years. The previous ordinary election was held on 22 May 2011, setting the election date for the General Junta on 24 May 2015.Ley Orgánica 5/1985, de 19 de junio, del Régimen Electoral General Organic Law 5 es 19 June 1985 https://www.boe.es/buscar/act.php?id=BOE-A-1985-11672&tn=1&p=20150331 28 December 2016
The president had the prerogative to dissolve the General Junta and call a snap election, provided that no motion of no confidence was in process, no nationwide election was due and some time requirements were met: namely, that dissolution did not occur either during the first legislative session or within the legislature's last year ahead of its scheduled expiry, nor before one year had elapsed since a previous dissolution 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 General Junta was to be automatically dissolved and a fresh election called. Any snap election held as a result of these circumstances would not alter the period to the next ordinary election, with elected lawmakers serving the remainder of its original four-year term.
The election to the General Junta of the Principality of Asturias was officially triggered on 31 March 2015 after the publication of the election decree in the Official Gazette of the Principality of Asturias (BOPA).
Background
Following the 2012 election, regional PSOE leader Javier Fernández was able to be elected as President of Asturias thanks to a confidence and supply agreement with both IU-IX and UPyD. However, in November 2013 both parties announced they were withdrawing support from the government after the PSOE voted down a proposal to reform the autonomous community's electoral law (including, among other things, a removal of the three district-division of the Principality), leaving the regional government in minority.http://politica.elpais.com/politica/2013/11/01/actualidad/1383313675_822196.html UPyD breaks with the PSOE in Asturias and leaves the regional government in minority es El País 1 November 2013http://www.abc.es/espana/20131101/abci-upyd-asturias-201311011727.html UPyD and IU announce the rupture of the legislature pact with the PSOE in Asturias es ABC 1 November 2013 To prevent a parliamentary deadlock, however, the PSOE unexpectedly reached an agreement with the PP to obtain its parliamentary support to avoid political instability,http://www.elconfidencial.com/espana/2014-03-19/el-psoe-cambia-de-aliados-y-se-apoya-en-el-pp-para-seguir-gobernando-en-asturias_104389/ PSOE switches allies and relies on the PP to keep governing Asturias es El Confidencial 19 March 2014http://www.infolibre.es/noticias/politica/2014/11/17/psoe_pactan_los_presupuestos_asturias_24062_1012.html PSOE and PP agree the budget in Asturias es InfoLibre 17 November 2014http://www.elcomercio.es/politica/201412/28/psoe-cierran-legislatura-pacto-20141228205331.html PSOE and PP close the legislature with an unforeseen budgetary agreement in Asturias es El Comercio 28 December 2014 in what was dubbed by opponents as the duerno agreement.http://www.infolibre.es/noticias/politica/2014/11/17/psoe_pactan_los_presupuestos_asturias_24062_1012.html García-Pumarino denounces that the 'duerno agreement' "is more alive than ever" es El Comercio 5 October 2014

The election was influenced by the surge of two rising parties in opinion polls: Podemos (Spanish for We can), a left-wing party created in January 2014 to contest the 2014 European Parliament election and whose success brought it to establish itself as a fully-fledged party at the national level, and centrist Citizens (C's), whose rise in opinion polls early in 2015 and its success in the 2015 Andalusian election brought it at the center of media attention. Emilio León stood as Podemos' candidate after being elected in a primary election process held during the last weeks of March,http://www.lne.es/asturias/2015/04/01/emilio-leon-candidato-presidencia-asturias/1735729.html Emilio León, Podemos' candidate to the presidency of Asturias es La Nueva España 1 April 2015 Citizens will also run in the election,http://www.elcomercio.es/politica/201504/04/incertidumbre-marca-candidaturas-electorales-20150403194644.html Uncertainty marks electoral candidacies in Asturias es El Comercio 4 April 2015 despite an early controversy resulted in the resignation of the former party's candidate Francisco Gambarte and the party staff considering whether to stand or not in the region.http://www.elconfidencialautonomico.com/asturias/Ciudadanos-repetira-primarias-Asturias-candidato_0_2452554728.html Citizens will repeat primaries in Asturias after its candidate's renounce es El Confidencial Autonómico 13 March 2015 Nicanor García will be the candidate, while Ignacio Prendes, expelled from UPyD, was the second person in the list.http://www.elcomercio.es/politica/201504/18/nicanor-garcia-sera-candidato-20150418004534-v.html Nicanor García será el candidato autonómico de Ciudadanos con Prendes como número dos El Comercio 18 April 2015 es

Parties and candidates
The electoral law allowed 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 were required to inform the relevant Electoral Commission within ten 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 of candidates.

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; 23 seats were required for an absolute majority in the General Junta of the Principality of Asturias.
