About this statute

This provision says who can vote in Folketing elections, who can stand as a candidate, that voting requires being on the electoral register, and that members are elected for 4 years. Section 32 sets rules for how Folketinget elections are called, how constituencies and polling areas are arranged, and which parties may take part. Applications must be signed by the party chair and sent to the Election Board. New parties must notify the Minister of the Interior and Health by 12:00, 15 days before election day, and include voter statements unless the German minority party is notifying. The section sets rules for approving party names and collecting voter declarations, mainly through a digital solution, with some paper-form exceptions. Certain voters abroad must apply to be placed on the electoral register in their last registered municipality, and the municipal board receives the application.
