Spain elections · 1971-09-29 · held

Cortes Españolas — elected family representatives: 104 elected seats.

Results: not-entered · partial coverage · Source-scoped election results

Franco-era restricted election of family representatives only, not the whole appointed/corporate Cortes. Eligible voters were heads of family and married women. No competitive party allocation or whole-chamber 564-seat result is inferred.

Election legitimacy

Uncompetitive / restricted

Our assessment: restricted representation under the Franco dictatorship, with a limited family-based franchise and an otherwise appointed/corporate legislature.
