Election review complaints: rejection by reference to rapporteur's letter without further reasoning under § 24(2) BVerfGG

The Federal Constitutional Court dismissed two election review complaints, refusing to proceed on the merits by referring to the reasoning in the rapporteur’s letter of October 12, 2023, thereby allowing the challenged election results to stand. The case involved constitutional challenges to the validity of parliamentary elections, where the complainants argued that their candidates' election was unlawful. In its operative order, the Court combined the proceedings and explicitly waived further reasoning pursuant to § 24(2) of the Federal Constitutional Court Act (BVerfGG), relying solely on the prior written submission from the rapporteur to conclude that the complaints lacked merit.
