Swiss parliamentary elections 2015 / results of the national council elections

The National Council elections for the 50th legislative period took place on October 18, 2015. This page provides an overview of the results in the cantons (parties, votes, share of the vote, seats).

Note on voter numbers

In the multi-person constituencies (20 cantons with a total of 194 out of 200 seats), each voter has as many votes as there are seats available in his canton (35 in the canton of Zurich, 2 in the canton of Jura). He can assign these votes to any candidate on the lists that are standing for election ( panaschieren ). One vote for a candidate is also one vote for his party. If a voter has not given all of his votes to candidates, these votes go as so-called “additional votes” to the list he has elected. If the voter does not select a list (but uses a so-called «ballot slip without party name»), unused votes (so-called empty votes) expire. In order to achieve results that are comparable across cantons, the so-called “voter count” is used here. This is obtained by dividing the votes by the number of seats. But because a voter can distribute his votes to several parties, there are 1/2, 1/3 etc. votes. The whole voter counts given below are rounded values. These represent no more than statistical fiction. An Aargau “voter” can also consist of 16 people who each have a candidate from the party concerned on their list.

Canton of Aargau (16 seats)

Due to the population development, the Canton of Aargau had one more National Council seat than in the previous elections.

Canton of Valais (8 seats)

The special feature of the canton of Valais is that all major parties have independent parties for the German-speaking Upper Valais and the French-speaking Lower Valais. There are even three Valais parties within CVP Switzerland: CVP Unterwallis, CVP Oberwallis and CSP Oberwallis (the CSP Unterwallis, on the other hand, belongs to the CSP ). Since these parties are not just regional lists, but rather independent parties with a life of their own, they are listed separately here. Due to the population development, the canton of Valais had one more National Council seat than in the previous elections.
