  "account": "The Supreme Court has temporarily suspended the voting rights of Spanish citizens who were registered on the electoral roll after benefiting from the Democratic Memory Law, also known as the \"grandchildren law\". This ruling affects those who obtained nationality without specifically proving they are descended from individuals exiled for political, ideological or religious reasons. The law had also considered economic reasons, but this is not the case for those whose voting rights have been suspended.",
  "summary": "The precautionary measure prevents part of the new citizens from voting but does not affect the granting of nationality.",
