My Favorite Poltical Party

Ciudadanos En Blanco is a Spanish political party.

In Spanish electoral law, a distinction is made between valid votes, blank votes (votos en blanco) and null votes. Blank votes are interpreted as correctly executed votes for "none of the above", and consistently about 2% of votes are blank. Voting "blank" is not the same thing as abstaining, and so it has been argued that blank votes should be recognized as legitimate by apportioning empty seats in representative bodies according to the number of blank votes.

This would mean that 2% of the seats would be left empty. Though this is not what currently happens. So the platform of Ciudadanos En Blanco is that, if elected, their candidates will leave their seats vacant, until such time as the Spanish electoral law is reformed to recognize blank by apportioning empty seats in representative bodies according to the number of blank votes.

So you have a political party that promises to do nothing. Sounds pretty perfect to me. We get all the benefits of America’s current do nothing congress but none of the problems.
