Show answer and explanation
✓ A los concejales, de cuyas listas sale el alcalde
In the municipal elections the citizens vote for the lists of councillors (concejales) of their municipality, and the mayor comes from among them. That is why the manual gives "mayors and councillors" as the answer. Deputies and senators are elected in the general elections, and the MEPs in the European elections. Ministers are not voted for: they are appointed by the Prime Minister. Trick: municipal equals mayor and councillors; general equals deputies and senators.
