The census office report clears up doubts about the municipality where naturalized citizens vote: “There are no automatic registrations”

The Electoral Census Office states that voters decide which constituency they want to be registered in for absentee voting, without automatic registrations taking place. This is according to a report to the Central Electoral Board on determining electoral registration municipalities. The report, obtained by EL PAÍS, certifies that criteria used in consulates to register voters in specific constituencies ensure objectivity, homogeneity, transparency, and equality.

The Office proposes measures to reinforce these criteria and facilitate the work of consular offices.
