> List votes, registered voters, blank ballots, and null ballots for the municipality from the Ministry of the Interior's data files. Valid votes here are the votes to candidacies; blank ballots, which the ministry counts as valid, are stored apart. Seats are the councillors the ministry declares for each list, and the elected councillors are the candidates it flags as elected.

> List votes, registered voters, blank ballots, and null ballots by polling station (mesa) from the Ministry of the Interior's data files. A mesa sits on its census section where the section code is in the 2025 INE section map, otherwise on its municipality. The mesa figures add up to the municipality's official totals exactly.
