Question juridique clé
Whether the tacit election procedure for the Council of State violated political rights or the cantonal constitution.
Solution extraite
No. Tacit election is compatible with the majoritarian system when cantonal law allows it and the convocation notice clearly informs voters of that possibility.
Motifs extraits
The official convocation was published twice and expressly provided for tacit election if candidates did not exceed the seats. That notice, together with the law and internet publication, gave sufficient information; the voter brochure did not need to reproduce all legal rules.
