Vienna Election: Deadline for Written Postal Voting Card Applications Ends Wednesday
Such requests can still be made until midnight. Orally, a voting card can be applied for until Friday, 12 noon, at the election office (Magistrate). With this, postal voting (from home or abroad) or voting in "foreign" polling stations is possible.
Last Day for Written Voting Card Applications for Vienna Election
Those who personally collect their voting card at the election office can not only use it for postal voting or voting outside of their "own" polling station, but can also mark and submit the ballot there immediately. If voting by mail, the ballot must be received by election day at 5:00 p.m. at the latest. All information on applying for a voting card can be found at https://go.apa.at/pPijx9in.
New this year is that not all postal votes will be counted the day after the election. In Vienna, similar to the new regulation for EU or national elections, it now also applies that (with the exception of those of EU citizens, note) almost all ballots received by Friday at 5:00 p.m. will be counted in the responsible districts. This means that the preliminary result on election night will be closer to the final result and the district results will also be more meaningful for analyses.
