Abstract: The 2012 Basque regional election, held on 21 October, resulted in a new government of the Basque Nationalist Party (PNV). The incumbent Socialist Party suffered a dramatic reduction in electoral support, obtaining just 19% of the vote, far below the 30% they had attained in 2009. This was the first election held in the Basque Country without the looming shadow of ETA (Euskadi Ta Askatasuna; “Basque Homeland and Freedom”). However, the influence of the economy was stronger than the nationalism issue in this election, as we show in this electoral report. |
