Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appeal was admissible as a voting-rights complaint under Art. 34 BV
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The complainants, as voters in the City of Bern, had standing to bring a voting-rights complaint against the communal election result.
Extrahierte Begründung
The Federal Court held that Stimmrechtsbeschwerden may be directed against communal voting matters and that voters may invoke their institutional function without showing a special personal interest.
