Citizens' petition

With a citizens' initiative, citizens of a municipality apply to decide on a matter in the form of a referendum instead of the council. Anyone who is eligible to vote in municipal elections in Aachen can submit a petition for a referendum in Aachen. If a referendum is held, the city must provide comprehensive information to all those entitled to vote. The City of Aachen has made the provision that all those entitled to vote receive a so-called "voting booklet" with the notification of the day of the vote.

Postal vote

Persons entitled to vote who are entered in a voters' register may exercise their right to vote by postal vote without a special reason. This is also possible if they are temporarily abroad. To do so, they must apply for a so-called polling card from the municipality of their main place of residence. No justification is required. Postal voting documents are automatically enclosed with the polling card.
