What I am really curious about is where PNV, EA, EHAK and Aralar together make up a majority, and where (if at all) Spanish-national parties do the same. *Lunatic*, n. One whose delusions are out of fashion.
Let me give you the data here:
Basque country: 1.223.634 votes, 575.889 abstentions PNV/EA 38.67% PSE 22.68% PP 17.40% EHAK 12.44% EB 5.37% Aralar 2.33% UA 0.34% And, by province, Alava: 171.492 votes, 76.156 abstentions PNV/EA 30.67% PP 25.95% PSE 25.49% EHAK 8.37% EB 4.96% UA 2.22% Aralar 1.50% Vizcaya: 659.366 votes, 311.609 abstentions PNV/EA 40.97% PSE 23.37% PP 17.61% EHAK 10.06% EB 5.55% Aralar 1.57% Guipúzcoa: 392.776 votes, 188.124 abstentions PNV/EA 38.30% PSE 20.29% EHAK 18.22% PP 13.32% EB 5.24% Aralar 3.96% Note that in the regional parliament each province gets 25 seats, despite the population differences (Alava is overrepresented)

Yes, the website is crap. guaranteed to evoke a violent reaction from police is to challenge their right to "define the situation." --- David Graeber citing Marc Cooper
I spend too much time playing with the Gimp. guaranteed to evoke a violent reaction from police is to challenge their right to "define the situation." --- David Graeber citing Marc Cooper
This is an enclave of the province of Burgos within Alava, and it's called Condado de Treviño It is not so much demanded by the nationalists as wishing, by itself, to be incorporated to Alava because it is several hours away from the city of Burgos but right next to Vitoria.
It would make a whole lot of sense for them to switch, but the last time they tried the PP national and regional (in Castilla-León) government would not allow them to hold a referendum on the issue, and also it would probably bring even more non-Basque nationalists into Alava (though I'd have to substantiate this with election or poll data). guaranteed to evoke a violent reaction from police is to challenge their right to "define the situation." --- David Graeber citing Marc Cooper
By the way, as EB is a local branch of a "national" party I am assuming it would not advocate independence, but it is currently in coalition with PNV/EA in the Basque government. From the point of view of National politics, this is the "looney left" aspect of the united left.
What this means is that the "median" falls on EB more often than on the PSE. guaranteed to evoke a violent reaction from police is to challenge their right to "define the situation." --- David Graeber citing Marc Cooper
