How the Spain election quiz works
- 01In the Spain election quiz you answer 36 statements from the 12 Axes test on a seven-point scale, from strongly agree to strongly disagree. For more precision you can take the 60 or the 288 statement version.
- 02Your answers become a percentage on each of the twelve axes: the structure of the state, democracy, foreign intervention, the military, civil liberties, the economy, religion, culture, immigration, regulation, trade and technology.
- 03Each party has an estimated position on the same twelve axes, based on its manifestos, its votes in Congress and expert surveys of European parties.
- 04Closeness is how near your twelve percentages are to each party's: 100% would be an exact match. The Spain election quiz then ranks the 15 parties from closest to farthest.

How the parties were placed
Party positions are this site's editorial estimates, not measurements. They start from the 2024 Chapel Hill Expert Survey (CHES), the parties' 2023 manifestos, their votes in Congress and their recent public positions.
Each party gets a number from 0 to 100 on all twelve axes, on the same basis as the countries in the 12 Axes test. Nationalist and regionalist parties score high on the federal axis, and every party contesting the election counts as democratic on the representation axis. Seats won in 2023 are counted by party of origin: Sumar's 31 seats are split between Frente Amplio, Podemos and Compromís.
This Spain election quiz does not tell you how to vote, is not linked to any party and does not store your answers: the calculation runs in your browser. Positions will be reviewed when the parties publish their manifestos for 29 November.
Spain election quiz: frequently asked questions
What is the Spain election quiz?
It is a free political quiz that compares your views with the positions of 15 Spanish political parties on twelve axes. It uses the statements of the 12 Axes test and is built for the general election on 29 November 2026.
Which party should I vote for according to the Spain election quiz?
The quiz does not tell you how to vote. It shows which parties are closest to your answers overall; your vote may depend on specific issues, the candidates or tactical voting in your province, which the quiz does not measure.
When is the Spanish general election?
On 29 November 2026. The prime minister called the snap election on 5 October 2026, and the campaign runs from 13 to 27 November.
Which parties are in the Spain election quiz?
Parties with seats in the Congress elected in 2023 and other parties polling at a relevant level: 15 in total. Each has its own page with its ideology and twelve-axis profile.
How accurate is this political quiz?
It is a guide. Party positions are estimates based on public sources, and the 12 Axes test is not a validated scientific instrument. Use it to reflect and compare, not as a verdict.
How long does the Spain election quiz take?
The quick version has 36 statements and takes about five minutes. The standard one has 60, about nine minutes, and the full one 288, about forty. More answers make the comparison with the parties more precise.
Are my answers or voting intentions stored?
No. The quiz runs in your browser and the result is kept only on your device to calculate how close you are to the parties. There is no sign-up and no database of answers.
How is it different from other Spanish voting advice quizzes?
Many voting advice quizzes ask about specific bills of the last parliament. This one uses twelve ideological axes, such as territory, the economy, liberties, culture and immigration, so besides the parties it also shows your ideology, your closest country and your place on the political compass.
Can I see the ideology of each Spanish party?
Yes. Every party has a page with its twelve-axis profile, its place on the political compass, the closest classic ideology and the parties most similar to it.
How is the closeness percentage calculated?
We measure the distance between your twelve percentages and the party's and turn it into a 0 to 100 scale. 100% would be an exact match on every axis; in practice the highest values usually fall between 80 and 90%.
