According to reports, this law is of great significance for immigrants to participate in political affairs and safeguard their own rights and interests. However, many naturalized Chinese immigrants are not concerned about local elections in Spain, and some are not even aware of which parties are running.
When discussing voting, most naturalized Chinese stated that they do not understand the platforms of the various parties and will not go to polling stations to vote.
According to reports, some Chinese say these matters are too far removed from their daily lives. Although they have been naturalized, the issues and news they care about in their daily lives remain focused on making a living and affairs in China. As for voting and who comes to power, they consider these to be matters for the Spanish people.
However, a small number of naturalized Chinese indicated that they would go to vote. In doing so, they would support parties that propose policies friendly toward immigrants. They believe that this will, to a certain extent, create a favorable environment for their future lives.
