How Patients in Care and Nursing Institutions Can Participate in the Vienna Election

With the voting card, one can either vote by mail or arrange for a visit by a mobile election commission. The staff of the respective facilities offer support in applying for this. They should be approached early to ensure a smooth process.

Voting by mail also possible within the facility

Those who wish to use the mail voting option for the Vienna Election 2025 can do so immediately after receiving the voting card. It is important to sign the voting card personally, confirming that the vote was cast without influence.

The completed voting card must arrive at the responsible district election authority by election day, April 27, 2025, by 5 PM at the latest – whether by mail, through relatives, or personally. Alternatively, it can be submitted on election day at any polling station or district election authority in Vienna. The facilities also provide assistance with the return of the voting card upon request.

Mobile election commissions upon request

As an alternative to mail voting, a visit from a mobile election commission can also be requested. The election authority calls on all eligible patients and residents to inform the nursing staff of their wish for such a visit.

Only if this wish is communicated in a timely manner can a visit be organized on election day. This ensures that even people with mobility impairments can exercise their right to vote.
