(TioJimeno) There are 7,111 people with the right to vote in Jimena this coming Sunday. Of these, 6,814 hold Spanish nationality while the remaining 297 are citizens of the European Union. We do not know how many of them are English-speaking, but probably a minority, as most of our local compatriots can't be bothered even to find out, but will be heard to complain endlessly at the bar when things don't go their way... In any case, there are 208 less voters in the municipality, compared to the last local elections in 2007, which had 7,319 on the rolls. Then, there was a 76.92% turnout overall (5,693 voters), the remaining 23.08% (1,689) abstained. The electoral census has grown by 1,005 voters since the first municipal (local) elections in democracy held in 1987.
