Electoral System
The 350 seats in Congress are distributed among 50 provinces using the D'Hondt method. Each province receives at least two seats, except for Ceuta and Melilla, which each have one. Madrid has the most seats (37), while Soria has the fewest (2).
3% restrictive clause
The restrictive clause in Spain is 3% (per constituency). Since most constituencies have a low number of seats, the effective threshold is significantly higher there.
Majority from 176 MPs
To form a government, 176 of 350 MPs are required.
