Those who, from the calling of the electoral process until the end of voting day, maliciously or without the authorization of the affected candidates disseminate images or audio of those candidates that have been altered or recreated by automated systems, software, algorithms, or artificial-intelligence mechanisms shall be punished with a penalty of three months to one year or a fine of six to twenty-four months.AI Verified source (2023-05-17)

The quote directly sets criminal penalties for malicious or unauthorized AI-altered candidate images/audio during the electoral period, which matches the full statement about criminalizing deepfakes and malicious AI use in electoral campaigns. It clearly reflects support for the measure.

The quote clearly supports it by saying those who maliciously or without authorization spread AI-altered candidate images or audio during the electoral period "shall be punished with a penalty of three months to one year or a fine."

The quote directly supports the policy: it explicitly says people who maliciously or without authorization disseminate AI-altered images or audio of election candidates "shall be punished." That is a clear endorsement of prohibiting deceptive AI-generated media of candidates, even though the quote adds timing and authorization limits.

Verified. The La Vanguardia/Servimedia article at the supplied URL reproduces the Spanish passage as part of the proposed new article 144 bis: “serán castigados con la pena de tres meses a un año o la de multa de seis a veinticuatro meses quienes, desde la convocatoria del proceso electoral y hasta finalizada la jornada de votación, difundiesen... imágenes o audios... alterados o recreados mediante... inteligencia artificial”. The Congreso record for initiative 122/000331, presented on 2023-05-17, lists the author as “Grupo Parlamentario Confederal de Unidas Podemos-En Comú Podem-Galicia en Común.” The English text provided is a faithful translation of that passage, so the quote is authentic and correctly attributed.

Disputed
The source URL contains closely related Spanish wording about penalties during the electoral period for AI-altered candidate images/audio, and the official Congress bill contains the same language as proposed article 144 bis. But in both places it appears as quoted legislative text, not as a direct quotation from Enrique Santiago; contemporaneous coverage attributes a different direct quote to him about AI affecting rights and democracy. So the English text provided is a condensed paraphrase/mashup of the bill language, not a verbatim, correctly attributed Santiago quote. ([lavanguardia.com](https://www.lavanguardia.com/nacional/20230517/8973886/up-propone-tipificar-delito-electoral-honor-difundir-falsificaciones-ia.html))

AI Unverifiable
Quote (translated from Spanish): Enrique Santiago (IU/Unidas Podemos) — "They will be punished. It applies during the electoral process. It covers candidate images or audio altered or recreated by AI." Statement #408 (criminalizing deepfakes/malicious AI in electoral campaigns), vote=for. Vote alignment is CORRECT — Santiago authored/championed this criminalization proposal. Year 2023 is older than 2025 but the quote remains relevant, so KEPT. I searched for a 2026+ quote from Enrique Santiago on this same topic to add alongside, but found no genuine recent quote attributable to him specifically, so per protocol I did not fabricate one. Source verification: the source_url (lavanguardia.com) could not be fetched (blocked), and the official Izquierda Unida press release (izquierdaunida.org/2023/05/17/...) returned HTTP 403. A web search strongly corroborated the substance: Unidas Podemos/Enrique Santiago registered a May 2023 bill creating a new electoral crime for using AI-generated images/voices of candidates to alter an electoral result, applicable from when an electoral process is called until its conclusion, with significant penalties. Since the source URL is blocked from direct fetching, marking ai_unverifiable per protocol.
