Municipal electionsBallot papers may be filled in with pencil

RTL Today
The Pirate Party had filed a parliamentary question over their concern that ballot papers could be altered if filled in with pencil.

The party asked Minister of the Interior, Taina Bofferding, if there were plans to allow municipalities to ban the use of pencils during the upcoming election.

Bofferding responded there were no intentions to ban pencils. She also took the opportunity to highlight the law which declares anyone found manipulating a ballot paper can be subjected to fines from €500 to €15,000.
