> This outlet documents theories and rumours circulating online. What is described here is not established fact and we do not endorse it: many of these claims are false or lack evidence. Each article states what the evidence says.

**What the evidence says:** Misleading. The BOE of 29 October 2026 publishes Order PJC/1129/2026, which records a Council of Ministers agreement of 27 October on QR readers for MiDNI at polling stations. Maldita.es places that agreement one day before the Urda accident, and its publication in the BOE within the official mourning, which according to El Debate began on 29 October. Maldita.es adds that the order did not by itself authorise voting with digital ID: the Central Electoral Board did so on 5 November. None of the sources consulted proves that the timing of the publication was deliberate.
