About 170,000 people marched through Madrid on Saturday in the largest protest yet against an amnesty law which Spain's Socialists agreed over Catalonia's 2017 separatist bid in order to form a government.
You’re right, I mixed dates and numbers. It was ~40% turnout, and then in 2019 a poll showed that ~40% of Catalans wanted independence. That’s where I got my numbers wrong I think.
That’s some very slippery phrasing. 40% turnout does not mean 40% of the vote.

Source? Every report I’ve read shows over 90% in favor.
