The seven registered voters in Villaroya, a small village in La Rioja province, beat their previous record of 32 seconds.

Salvador Pérez, the current mayor, has held the position since 1973.

“I don’t know if I’ll get all seven votes, but I’m pretty sure I will,” he told Spanish media.

Perez said the residents of Villaroya are “very well prepared” and ready to vote as soon as the polls open this morning.

After just 29 seconds and 52 hundredths, Villaroya became the first in Spain to complete the vote.

Perez admitted his countrymen were likely motivated by a sense of competitiveness with another Spanish village, Illan de Vacas in Castilla-La Mancha, which has just three registered voters.

Local elections in Spain are seen as a test for parliamentary elections to be held at the end of the year.
