Comment

At the moment, 12 cantons offer e-voting for voters abroad (vote casting through the Internet). Geneva and Neuchâtel offer e-voting to voters in particular constituencies. 2013 the Federal Council identified the conditions for the expansion of the electronic channel. In the future all voters should be able to vote online. The conditions for the expansion of e-voting have been defined within the legal basis.

OMR is used in a few communes based on the Federal Act on Plitical Rights  Art. 84
