Who did you vote for in the EU? When were those elections?


Just last week was one of them.


> Who did you vote for in the EU? When were those elections?

2024 European elections: https://elections.europa.eu/en/

Includes topics such as: results, how the elections work, and what comes next.


We vote for the parliament, which was only like a week ago. Each country also votes for their government, at times specified by their constitutions. Those governments then form the Commission and the Council.


The EU parliament has a quite limited role. That's not the center of EU power.


Sure. But every institution is elected one way or another.
