German court rejects voting narrative demanded by populist BSW party

Germany's constitutional court refused to issue a narrative of the country's parliamentary elections that the upstart populist populist Sahara Wagenkt (BSW) party did not get a seat in Bandestag.

The court announced the decision Thursday night.

Germany's Supreme Court said: “As before the election, the legal protections regarding this election are limited only until the final election results are determined.”

The official final result of the national election will be announced by the Federal Election Commission on Friday. Objections may be raised and legal action may be taken after the result is announced if necessary.

A BSW spokesperson confirmed the party's legal documents on Tuesday. The party has filed several motions, including one that requires the official final result to be determined only after a full vote.

Official preliminary results of Germany's February 23 election put BSW's votes in 4.972%, slightly below the 5% threshold that parties usually need to pass to require a seat in the German parliament's lower house of parliament Bundestag.

Since then, individual narratives across several places have shown that some votes seem to have been missed. However, these recordings did not result in any significant changes in the results.

For BSW, which was established only in early 2024, entering the federal country would be the most important political importance.

If you want to find a way to enter the Parliament, you must reassign seats. The alliance of two parties, composed of the center-right CDU/CSU group and the center-left SPD party, may no longer have a majority.
