Pamplona is setting up a total of for the Spanish parliamentary election on 29 November 2026 a total of 263 polling stations in 27 polling places. According to the city council on 9 November 2026, 154,927 people registered in Pamplona are eligible to vote. Polling is scheduled from 9 am to 8 pm on election day.
The arrangements are being coordinated between the Ayuntamiento de Pamplona and the relevant departments of the regional government of Navarre. Municipal teams are preparing tables, ballot boxes, screens and signs; around 50 additional people are also being deployed through the city's employment service. For the eight facilities under the responsibility of the Government of Navarra, the city is providing six additional staff in two groups. The members of the 263 polling stations were selected by lot at an extraordinary plenary session. Since early November, residents have been able to enquire at the city council about the details of the draw.
Several local adjustments are intended to ensure smooth operations and accessibility. Because of building work, the three polling stations at Nicasio Landa in the Etxabakoitz district are being moved to the main building; the preschool building is currently unavailable. The polling place previously located at Plaza Blanca de Navarra is being moved to the Escuela de Arte y Superior de Diseño to ensure accessible entry and exit. The city also refers residents to an accessibility guide from the Ministerio del Interior for people with disabilities.
The 263 polling stations will be staffed by a total of 789 people: a president, a first deputy and a second deputy at each. Pamplona is thus applying the usual mechanism for ensuring electoral oversight. Information on further details—such as postal voting and alternative premises in the event of unforeseen disruption—is available at municipal level and is updated on an ongoing basis.
The organisational effort reflects two aims: ensuring polling places are accessible throughout the city and conducting the vote reliably. According to the city council, these measures form part of an established procedure adapted to local conditions at every nationwide election. No forecasts of turnout or possible effects on the results can be inferred from this; the figures describe the state of preparations as at 9 November 2026.
