Melilla has been one of the epicenters of the campaign that will lead to the polls today. The scandal of alleged vote-buying has shaken the entire country, but the effects of it are felt above any other site in the autonomous city.

Today could register a new record number of abstentions following the annulment of more than half of the votes made by mail. At 14 p.m. it had dropped 0.53 points in Melilla and its participation rate was the lowest in the whole country, since only 25.71% of citizens with the right to vote had gone to polls.
