Following the adoption of the law has emerged Sinde a process underway deployed around the idea "do not vote " and whose "ideology" is summarized in the following:
"Your decision is important. we will not vote for any particular party, nor blank vote or you abstain, but you run reports to see that there are alternatives against the law Sinde across the ideological spectrum. We ask to defend freedom in the network with your vote, by not supporting those who by their actions have been clearly deserving of a punishment vote. "
However, the result of the situation is easy to think of not voting, a position I personally do not agree, because enough has been fought in this country to perform that act as for now ignore it. This option is perfectly legitimate because we let others decide for us.
Just as you can think of no vote in any vote so is white.
If this is your choice, equally respectable, I need to know what is the white vote and who benefits, in order to analyze and decide in conscience.
According to the Organic Law 5 / 1985 General Electoral Regime , blank votes are (Articles 96.5 ):
" blank vote is considered, but valid The envelope contains no ballot and also in the Senate elections, ballots containing no indication for either candidate. "
4. Within the period specified in the preceding paragraph without causing complaints or protests, or resolved them by the Central Electoral Board, the Electoral competent authorities shall, within the next day, the proclamation of elected whose effects are counted as valid votes obtained by each candidate more white votes "
The importance of the vote to be valid is that in the possibility that a minority option to access the seats or councils have a minimum threshold. words, a candidate must have a minimum percentage of total Feedback if you want to enter the distribution of elected representatives.
Thus, for For municipal elections, this minimum threshold is set at 5% ( Article 180) of the valid votes and for the general election in 3% . (Article 163.1.a )
This means that if we have a city in which they have collected 10,000 votes, for a party access to the allocation of council must have at least 300 votes.
If those 10,000 1,000 votes are blank ballots, votes that will need to be 300, but with fewer votes for all candidates is more difficult to reach that number, leaving in this case beyond representation.
Therefore, if you're interested in the initiative "will not votes" and think not to vote for none of those present, be aware that your vote can be benefiting blank without trying, to those who do not want to benefit.
