For both Greece and Spain, the European elections are just one of four electoral contests taking place this year. Both countries face national, regional and municipal elections as well. While the Spanish general election has been called for 28 April, the date of the Greek national poll is still unknown but must occur by early October. Thus in both countries, there is a complex picture of multi-level votes, with the European elections largely overshadowed by the question of which parties will form the next national government.
