Candidates: 48 hours to denounce irregularities in municipal council appointment

The Central Electoral Board announces the appointment of Jon Undabarrena as councilor in Loiu due to vacancy from the 2023 municipal elections. Candidates' representatives have two days to raise irregularities after publication in the BOE, as provided in Instruction 1/2025 (second paragraph, point 2). This period allows interested parties to file objections before the appointment is finalized.

In 2 key points

  1. 48-hour deadline to report irregularities following publication in the BOE (número 2 del apartado segundo de la Instrucción 1/2025, de 30 de enero)
  2. Appointment of Jon Undabarrena as councillor in Loiu due to an electoral vacancy (artículo 182.2 de la LOREG)
