On February 22, 2012, the Federal Constitutional Court ruled that an electoral district must be redistributed even if not the entire German population of a constituency, but only the population entitled to vote differs by more than 25 percent from the average population entitled to vote in the constituencies. In Deggendorf, this is the case due to an above-average number of minors: the entire German population in the constituency deviates by 24.42% from the average, which makes a reallocation seem appropriate (target determination), but the eligible population is 25 , 6% less than average.
