The popularity of memes in politics is analyzed; memes are a way in which users express their feelings, usually with humor and satire. The aim of this study is to examine the use of memes that were posted on Twitter on Spain’s election day, 26J 2016. The methodology used in this study is a combination of case, content, and discourse analysis of 91 memes using a 30-item form created for this study. It is interesting to note that regardless of the political leader’s reputation, memes were used equally for all candidates, and the most creative activity coincided with the most outstanding events of 26J
