The signature lists may be sent continuously but must be sent in good time prior to the expiry of the referendum period to the office that is responsible under cantonal law for the issuing of certificates of eligibility to vote.1
The office certifies that the signatories in the communes stated in the signature list are eligible to vote on federal matters, and returns the signature lists to their senders without delay.
The certificate must state in words or in figures the number of certified signatures; it must be dated, bear the handwritten signature of the public official and indicate their official capacity by means of a stamp or addendum.
The eligibility to vote of the signatories may be certified collectively for more than one signature list.
