The phrase Que te vote Txapote emerged in Spain in spring 2023, during the municipal and general election campaigns, as a slogan used by critics of Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez. It referenced his reliance on support from EH Bildu and pointed to Txapote, the former ETA member Francisco Javier Garcia Gaztelu, convicted for multiple murders. The chant spread from street protests and rallies to television debates, newspapers and social media, becoming one of the most repeated lines of that election cycle and surviving afterwards as a meme sound.
