Barcelona has a new president!

After the votes were counted, Joan Laporta came on top with 54.28% of the votes (30.184 votes). Font came in 2nd with 29.99% (16.679 votes) and Freixa was last with 8.58% (4.769 votes), with 3628 spoilt votes and 351 blank votes. Laporta was the club's president from the 2003/04 season all the way to the 2009/10 season.

Messi casted his vote at around 11:43 AM (CET), and he brought his son Thiago Messi with him as well.


In that period of time, Barcelona won 4 La Ligas, 1 Copa del Rey and 2 UCLs, achieving the historical Sextete as well. Messi scored 127 goals and made 47 assists in 214 games while Laporta was in charge, won a Ballon d'Or in 2009 (and a second one in 2010, where Laporta was in charge half of the year), and 2 Golden Boots as well.


With Bartomeu gone and Laporta being Barcelona's president once again, hopefully we can go back to the good old days, and see a happy Messi once again.
