Regional administrations after the 2023 regional elections

Regional elections were held in Spain during 2023 to elect the regional parliaments of twelve of the seventeen autonomous communitiesAragon, Asturias, the Balearic Islands, the Canary Islands, Cantabria, Castilla–La Mancha, Extremadura, La Rioja, Madrid, Murcia, Navarre and the Valencian Community—and the two autonomous cities of Ceuta and Melilla. 737 of 1,212 seats in the regional parliaments were up for election, as well as the 50 seats in the regional assemblies of the autonomous cities. The elections were held on 28 May 2023 (simultaneously with local elections all throughout the country).

The results produced a landslide victory for the right-of-centre political forces, erasing all the gains made by the ruling Socialist Party in 2015 and 2019. The right recovered power of several regions and even broke through progressive strongholds such as Extremadura, with the PSOE only holding power in Castilla–La Mancha, Asturias and Navarre. This outcome prompted Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez to call a snap general election.
