Number mix-up: Europe eagerly awaited the first provisional seat projection for the tenth European Parliament shortly after 11 p.m., when a number mix-up occurred. Jaume Duch Guillot, the Parliament spokesperson, read numbers from a sheet, but the graphic behind him displayed a different seat distribution. Parliamentary President Roberta Metsola finally interrupted: „No, no, no.“ The confusion was significant, with news agencies initially reporting incorrect numbers. The official correction didn’t come until just before midnight.
