Important: Request postal voting documents in good time!

In preparation for the upcoming elections in February 2025, the Bavarian state election manager, Gößl, made important recommendations for letter voters. He advises you to bring the postal voting documents to the post office a few days before the election date to ensure that the voice can be submitted in good time, such as Brenstchare reported.

The votes are counted if they were handed over to the municipality until 6 p.m. until the end of the vote on February 23 or were received by the municipality as an election letter. There is also the possibility to pick up the postal voting documents directly from the municipality, to fill out and return them. Federal election manager Brand pointed out that due to the early election date, the documents for postal voting must be applied for faster, filled out and sent back.

Important information on postal voting

An option is required for the application for postal voting. This can be applied for by the municipality of the main residential location. The application can be made personally or in writing.

Applying for another person requires a written power of attorney and is only possible personally or in writing. Voters with disabilities have the opportunity to be helped with the application.
