Certificate of voting rights
In order to participate as a candidate in an election, a certain level of support is required from the population. For this purpose, so-called support signatures of citizens entitled to vote are used, which must be presented in order to be admitted to the election.
Description
In order to participate in an election as a candidate, a certain level of support from the population is required. All electoral laws therefore stipulate that a certain number of supporting signatures from eligible voters must be submitted for nominations by parties, voter associations, voter groups and individual candidates who are not represented by a minimum number of MPs in parliament or the body to be elected in order to be admitted to the election. In the case of a constituency nomination for a state parliamentary election, this is 125 signatures, for a state list 2080 signatures. For local elections, the number of supporting signatures depends on the population of the respective local authority.
