Spain's Catalonia voted in an election overshadowed by the pandemic and which Madrid hopes will unseat the region's ruling separatists more than three years after a failed bid to break away from Spain. The vote in the wealthy north-eastern region could see a high level of abstentions as Spain battles a third wave of coronavirus infections.
