Election for the German Bundestag in Berlin partially repeated

Election for the German Bundestag in Berlin partially repeated

The Federal Constitutional Court found in a judgment that parts of the Bundestag election in Berlin must be repeated of September 26, 2021. In Treptow-Köpenick, only eight urn elections and the associated four postal voting bars are affected. Specifically, this concerns the Friedrichshagen district and the urn elections 613, 617, 620, 623, 624, 625 and 626 as well as the corresponding postal voting bars.

In order to find out whether the repetition choice must be carried out in the electoral district belonging to a specific address, citizens can use a search mask on the Statistics Berlin-Brandenburg office. There you enter the specific addresses and then receive the feedback on whether the repetition choice must be carried out. For those who prefer an postal vote, the postal voting point at Ostendstraße 25 in 12459 Berlin is located, where you can hand over your vote on site.

With a view to local effects, it is important to inform the voters concerned about the need to reduce the partial repetition of the Bundestag election to ensure that they have the opportunity to take part in the election.

In addition to the information mentioned above, it can be helpful to include historical facts about comparable cases of partial repetitions of elections in order to illustrate the context for readers. A table with detailed information on the affected polling stations and the relevant addresses could offer readers a quick overview and a useful reference.
