Spanish legislative election, 2008 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Spanish general election, 2008
The 2008 Spanish general election was held on Sunday, 9 March 2008, to elect the 9th Cortes Generales of the Kingdom of Spain. At stake were all 350 seats in the Congress of Deputies and 208 of 264 seats in the Senate. Much like the previous election, this election returned a hung parliament with governing Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) being the largest party, increasing its share of the vote but remaining short by seven seats of an overall majority in the Congress. The Socialist Party, led by incumbent Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, declared victory on 9 March, and the opposition People's Party (PP) conceded defeat. The distance between both main parties remained essentially the same as in 2004, with a slight reduction in favour of the PP. Zapatero was elected Prime Minister for a second term, after which he proceeded to form a minority government. This election is notable for several reasons: it was the second of only two times in Spanish history that a political party won more than 11 million votes in a general election. The PSOE also won the most popular votes of any political party ever, breaking its own record in 2004. The sums of both PSOE and PP's percentage shares popular votes, and seats (almost 83.8%, over 21 million votes cast and 323 seats) accounted for the largest amount of popular support for the two main parties of Spain in a general election to date. United Left (IU) obtained its worst result ever in a national election with less than 4%, 1 million votes and just 2 seats. Union, Progress and Democracy (UPyD), the first nationwide political party aside from PSOE, PP and IU gaining parliamentary presence in the Congress since the 1989 general election, won 1 seat and slightly more than 300,000 votes. ==Overview==
