Background: Electoral Irregularities in Previous Elections

In the 2021 German Federal Election, numerous irregularities were reported in 455 polling stations in Berlin. To ensure the integrity of the electoral process, a partial re-run of the election was deemed necessary.

Impact on Electoral Results

The re-run of the election in these polling stations is expected to have a slight impact on the overall results. The CDU and AfD parties have been projected to gain незначительно in the affected areas.

Legal Basis for Re-run

The decision to hold a partial re-run of the election is based on the findings of the German Constitutional Court. The court ruled that the irregularities in the 2021 election had a "significant impact" on the outcome, justifying the need for a re-run.

Date of Re-run

The exact date for the re-run election has not yet been determined. The Bundestag is expected to announce the date in the near future.

Importance for Voter Confidence

The re-run of the election is crucial for restoring public trust in the electoral process. It sends a strong message that electoral irregularities will not be tolerated and that the integrity of the vote will be upheld.
