Madrid university vote on cuts moves toward digital voting

Madrid, Apr 16 (EFE).- A referendum on the Complutense University’s austerity plan began on Thursday with fewer in-person ballot boxes and increased online voting after some deans blocked the placement of ballot boxes inside their faculties in line with instructions from the rectorate.

The consultation asks the university community to vote on a financial plan approved in February that will remain in force until 2028 and includes a 35 percent cut in faculty spending to repay a 34.5 million euro loan to the Madrid regional government.
