# 2023 Muskiz municipal election

[Spain](https://electionsarchive.com/es.md) / [País Vasco](https://electionsarchive.com/es/pais-vasco.md) / [Muskiz](https://electionsarchive.com/es/pais-vasco/muskiz.md), May 28, 2023

Eduardo Briones Lerchundi won with 40.1% of the vote, 4.9 points ahead of Ainara Leiba Zabalbeitia.

> 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 4,001 list votes, against 4,002 in the municipality's official totals, so the municipality set is the default.

Seats: PSE-EE (PSOE) 6, EAJ-PNV 5, and EH Bildu 2.
