Citizens' banners in front of an electoral college

The only incident registered is the complaint against the Ciudadanos party for two large banners installed in front of the Llebeig school, ignoring the ban on the absence of electoral propaganda less than 100 meters from an electoral college.

From the party they alleged that it is an advertisement hired to a company and they were looking for a way to cover both posters. For the rest, the Electoral Board of the Zone has not registered any incident in the 49 electoral tables installed in Dénia.

The day is expected to be long, since once the schools close, at the 20: 00 hours, the count of the European Parliament ballots will begin. Once the recount ends, the votes will begin to count to the Dénia mayor's office.

From Dénia.com we will make a special follow-up to the electoral night from the close of the schools.
