The 2024 Hamburg borough elections were held on 9 June 2024, the same day of the European elections. Parties and electoral lists have to be registered with the borough returning office between 3 July 2023 and 2 April 2024.[1]

Electoral system

[edit]

Similarly to the state- and prior elections, a list proportional system will be used. Borough elections in Hamburg have a 3% electoral threshold.

Each voter has a total of ten votes: five constituency votes for the direct candidates in the constituency, and five at-large votes for candidates on the state lists (or for state lists in their entirety). The five votes can be amassed all on one person, party, or list (accumulation) or be distributed/split between different candidates, parties, or lists as desired (panachage). Voting privileges are passively awarded, meaning anyone over the age of 16 meeting eligibility requirements was automatically enrolled.
