Abstract

In the course of the annulment of the run-off election of the Federal President by the Austrian Constitutional Court in 2016 formal unlawfulness became evident. This contribution argues that the Constitutional Court did not sufficiently consider if the proven illegalities actually had an effect on the election result. Furthermore, it discusses if the jurisprudence concerning electoral freedom needs to be interpreted more extensively in times of new media.
