Candidates can challenge irregularities within 48 hours of concejal appointment

The Resolution of May 21, 2026, announces the appointment of Marçal Noguer Puigdemont as mayor in Bàscara (Girona) due to vacancy from no candidates on the list. A two-day period from publication in the BOE allows candidates' representatives to challenge irregularities that would prevent the appointment (art. 2). This mechanism enables review of possible electoral violations before confirmation of the appointment.

In 2 key points

  1. 48-hour period to report irregularities after the announcement is published (art. 2)
  2. Appointment of Marçal Noguer Puigdemont as councilor due to vacancy in Bàscara (Girona) (art. 1)

How it affects those involved

Local administrations must monitor complaints to assess whether a review of the process is necessary. Party advisors should be prepared to handle complaints and verify whether electoral process violations have occurred. Citizens might see their representation process affected if irregularities are detected.
