  "account": "Two progressive judges of the Spanish Constitutional Court, Ramón Sáez and Juan Carlos Campo, have expressed disagreement with their colleagues' decision regarding a demand for amparo filed by the Defensor del Pueblo. The demand concerned the suspension of voting rights for 160,000 Spanish citizens in the upcoming general elections. The judges felt that their colleagues focused on formalism instead of addressing the fundamental question of whether there is a legal framework to preserve the right to vote. The right to vote is a cornerstone of democratic principles.",
  "summary": "In the opinion of the two dissenters, the majority resorted to a “formalism” to avoid debating a case “of the kind that marks the history of a Constitutional Court”",
