Determine European election result

Service Description

When the election is over, the election committee determines how many votes the respective list election proposal has received. Subsequently, the district or city election committee shall determine how many votes within the district or city the respective list election proposals have received. These election committees may also verify the findings of the election committees. As the next instance, the state election committee determines the votes for the election proposals on a state-by-state basis. It may make arithmetical corrections to the results of the election committees and the district and municipal election committees. Finally, the Federal Election Committee determines the votes cast at the federal level. It also determines the number of seats for the list election proposals and determines the elected candidates. The Federal Election Committee
may make arithmetical corrections to the results of the Land electoral committee.

Process flow

The result of the European election is determined as follows:

  • The election committee in the electoral district establishes the result in the electoral district, prepares a record and hands it over to the municipal authority.
  • The municipal authority of a municipality belonging to a district prepares a summary of the results of the electoral districts in the territory of the municipality and hands it over to the district election officer.
  • The district and city election committees establish the results in their area of responsibility (district or city without a district) and transmit them to the state election officer.
  • The state election committee determines the result in the state and transmits it to the federal election officer.
  • The Federal Election Committee determines the result for the Federation, how many seats are allocated to the individual parties and which candidates are elected.
