Generato dall'IA

The German Federal Constitutional Court dismissed a constitutional election complaint as manifestly unsuccessful, with the complainant prevailing in no respect. The dispute concerned the validity of the five-percent threshold for second-vote results required for a party to be considered in the allocation of Bundestag seats to state lists under § 6(6) Sentence 1 Alternative 1 of the Federal Election Act. The Court reaffirmed that this quorum is constitutional and provided no further detailed reasoning pursuant to § 24 Sentence 2 of the Federal Constitutional Court Act, noting that the complainant failed to respond to prior concerns raised by the reporting judge.

Testo completo

Verwerfung einer Wahlprüfungsbeschwerde (A-limine-Abweisung): Zur Verfassungsmäßigkeit der Fünf-Prozent-Sperrklausel (Quorum der Zweitstimmen für die Berücksichtigung einer Partei bei der Verteilung der Bundestagsliste auf die Landeslisten) gem § 6 Abs 6 S 1 Alt 1 BWahlG

[GRUENDE]

Der Wahlprüfungsbeschwerde bleibt offensichtlich der Erfolg versagt. Das Bundesverfassungsgericht hat das in § 6 Abs. 6 Satz

1 Alternative 1 BWahlG vorgesehene und von dem Beschwerdeführer mit seiner Wahlprüfungsbeschwerde gerügte Quorum von 5 vom

Hundert der im Wahlgebiet abgegebenen gültigen Zweitstimmen, das eine Partei erreichen muss, um bei der Verteilung der Bundestagssitze

auf die Landeslisten berücksichtigt zu werden, als verfassungskonform erachtet (vgl. BVerfGE 1, 208 ;

122, 304 ). Die Erwägungen des Beschwerdeführers geben keinen Anlass zu einer abweichenden Beurteilung.

Von einer weiteren Begründung wird gemäß § 24 Satz 2 BVerfGG abgesehen. Der Beschwerdeführer ist durch den Berichterstatter

mit Schreiben vom 14. Juni 2011 auf die Bedenken gegen seinen Antrag hingewiesen worden. Hierzu hat er sich nicht geäußert.
