With the vote of the Ley Orgánica 3/2014 in the Congress, the abdication of King Juan Carlos I became effective. It was presented by the Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, who pointed out that the King abdicated “in favour of his successor Felipe de Borbón y Grecia, called to become King of Spain, just after the effective date of this law”. Some Congress representatives pointed out that “a new Head of State would be elected”; others voted “no”, highlighting their decision “for the republic”, “for the Catalonian republic” or “for the democracy”.
