Spain's grandchildren law adds 15,141 voters as suspension debated

Original: La #ley de #nietos 'fabrica' otros 15.141 #electores en septiembre mientras el Supremo debate si mantiene la suspensión

Spain's 'ley de nietos' added 15,141 new electors to the electoral roll in September, just as the Supreme Court weighs whether to keep the law's suspension in place. The law grants Spanish citizenship to grandchildren of Spaniards abroad, automatically giving them voting rights. The registration figures are intensifying a polarised debate over who counts as Spanish and the law's political impact.

Why now: New voter figures landed while the Supreme Court is actively deciding on the law's suspension, making the citizenship-and-vote dispute topical.
