ELECTIONS TO ACEPT NEW AUTONOMY LAW
The politians have said that Catalonians demand a new law, that the desire of a big majority was more self-government. It was as usual in this government a big lie.
Abstention was 50,6%, meaning that half of population didn’t give a shit about the reform of the autonomy law.
The electoral campaign, that I have already talked about, was illegal and the Electoral Authorities were asking to the govern to withdraw the slogans, not to call for participation only inform about the day the election would take place and mailing votation system. The autonomic government wanted to extent election time two days first (Sunday and Monday) and after been said no then to 10 pm on Sunday

All media system (6 TV national channels, and 3 autonomic ones, all newspapers but one and all radio channels but one) were promoting participation. Only 49,4% of population did vote yesterday. Did´t look quite driven by the new law, did they?
I have a Swedish friend, who taught me that a level of abstention bigger than 25% it was considerer a disaster in his country, that I consider one democratic system to look at.
We have doubled it and President Zapatero said yesterday that one remarkable point is the abstention level is normal. The law that will became in use asap.
There must be a joke in it and I can’t see it, only 36% of population vote YES to this autonomic law and the president of the Nation says it is a big success! I must meet my swedish friend to get another democracy lesson!
