LOREG art. 84.1: voting 'a las nueve horas ... hasta las veinte horas'; 20:00 CEST = 18:00 UTC. The provisional count is compiled from copies of each polling station's tally (art. 98.2, for provisional information only). Valencia is NOT bound to the fourth Sunday of May: Les Corts elected 28 May 2023 serve four years (Statute art. 23.4, mandate ends 28 May 2027) and the President of the Generalitat calls the election by decree, voting 54-60 days after its publication (Ley 1/1987 art. 14). The Valencian government has said it plans the election for 23 May 2027 with the municipal elections and denied an early election (El Español, 21 Jul 2026); on 27 Sep 2026 regional press still described the elections as about eight months away (Interdiario). A 23 May vote needs the decree published between 24 and 30 Mar 2027. SNAP/DATE RISK: the Statute text on BOE sets no final-year bar on dissolution (unlike Murcia, La Rioja and Navarre), so the President may still dissolve early or pick another date; search results (not opened) report speculation about aligning the vote with a general election. No dissolution had been announced by 30 Sep 2026. 2023 precedent: the Generalitat's provisional results were on resultats2023.gva.es and the 'GVA Elecciones 2023' app (eleccions2023.gva.es notes of 26 and 30 May 2023). The window's end (06:00 CEST Monday) is an ESTIMATE: the 2023 time of 100% counted was not verified. Provisional only; votes of electors resident abroad (CERA) are counted at the general scrutiny (art. 75).",
