Vox is left without being able to file appeals before the Constitutional Court or motions of censure alone

Vox, after its fall in the general elections this Sunday, 19 seats remaining at 33, will no longer be able to file appeals before the Constitutional Court or motions of censure alone. To do so, he will need to have the support of another political group if he intends to do so in the next legislature, since a minimum of 50 deputies are needed to present appeals before the Constitutional Court, 50 deputies and 35 are needed for a motion of no confidence.

During the previous legislature, Vox, with 52 deputies, presented almost fifty appeals before the aforementioned court against different laws approved by the Government of Pedro Sánchez, including the one known as the 'trans law', the 'only yes is yes' law or the repeal of the crime of sedition and the reduction of embezzlement.

In relation to the motions of censure, this formation, in the last legislature, presented two, one in October 2020 with Santiago Abascal as a candidate and another in March of this year with Professor Ramón Tamames.

Electoral polls, which have failed again, suggested that the right-wing bloc (PP plus Vox) could form a government. The leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, will try to form a government and asks the other parties not to block Spain. The PSOE, for its part, has celebrated the ballot as an electoral victory, despite assuming that a complex scenario is opening up.
