Abstract
One reason for the annulment of the Presidential Election was the violation of the principle of free elections enshrined in the Austrian Federal Constitutional Law (cf VfGH 1.7.2016, W I 6/2016, paras 511 ff). This can be seen as a consistent further development of former case-law by the Constitutional Court.
