All 75 seats in the Parliament were up for election. It was held concurrently with a regional election in the Basque Country. Alberto Núñez Feijóo announced the election would be brought forward to September, after initially scheduling to hold it throughout October, following Lehendakari Iñigo Urkullu's announcement of a Basque election for 25 September.29 July 2016 Urkullu adelanta las elecciones vascas al 25 de septiembre http://www.elmundo.es/pais-vasco/2016/07/29/579b0a37e2704ee6698b4614.html es El Mundo 27 January 202029 July 2016 Urkullu convoca las elecciones vascas el 25 de septiembre https://elpais.com/politica/2016/07/29/actualidad/1469789316_806248.html es El País 27 January 2020 Feijóo defended his decision in that it would make "no sense" to hold the election only weeks after the Basque poll, specially considering the state of political instability in Spain over the government formation process after the general election in June.1 August 2016 Feijóo adelanta las elecciones gallegas al 25 de septiembre http://politica.elpais.com/politica/2016/08/01/actualidad/1470062110_200878.html es El País 27 January 2020 The election took place in a situation in which the Spanish political landscape had undergone a major transformation within a short time, with a decrease in support for the People's Party (PP) and the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) nationally and the emergence of new parties such as Podemos and Citizens (C's). Feijóo's PP, with 47.6% and 41 seats, went on to secure a third consecutive absolute majority, the only one at the time in Spain after the 2015 electoral cycle. The Podemos-supported En Marea list, which had already achieved major breakthroughs in the region at the 2015 and 2016 general elections, placed narrowly ahead of the Socialists' Party of Galicia (PSdeG–PSOE) which scored the worst result of its history in a Galician regional election. Concurrently, the Galician Nationalist Bloc (BNG) saw a slight drop in support but was able to outperform opinion poll predictions of an electoral meltdown. Finally, with 3.4%, Cs fell well below their aspirations of entering parliament, failing to secure any seat.25 September 2016 Feijóo logra la única mayoría absoluta de España y el PSOE pincha,

gallegas y vascas es La Vanguardia 23 February 2020 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 2012, which meant that the chamber's term would have expired on 21 October 2016. The election decree was required to be published in the DOG no later than 27 September 2016, setting the latest possible date for election day on 20 November 2016. 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 2 August 2016 with the publication of the corresponding decree in the DOG, setting election day for 25 September and scheduling for the chamber to reconvene on 21 October.Decree 92/2016 2016 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). Additionally, non-resident citizens were required 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 Spanish elections: Begging for the right to vote cafebabel.co.uk 17 July 2017 31 August 2021 https://web.archive.org/web/20210831202218/https://cafebabel.com/en/article/spanish-elections-begging-for-the-right-to-vote-5ae00a98f723b35a145e6867/ usurped 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.

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.
