Results Big tip: patience is required
A little more patience is needed with the results of the elections to the Basel parliament.
District President Ackermann: “I had to make an unpopular decision”
District President Elisabeth Ackermann (Greens) is disappointed. She had to make an “unpopular personal decision” before the election and has now been punished for it. She hopes all left-wing voters will back her on the second ballot.
SP Beat Jans National Councilor takes a leap to the government of Basel
Beat Jans achieves the fourth best result and is still ahead of incumbent government councilors Baschi Dürr (FDP) and Elisabeth Ackermann (SP)
Grim expressions in the red-green camp.
The president of the Green District, Elisabeth Ackermann, faced criticism before the elections. Many leftists did not include them on their ballots on Election Sunday. After counting those who voted by letter, Ackermann lags behind.
Tanja Soland is worried despite the top result
The SP government councilor is surprised that she gets the best result. “I am really looking forward. I did not expect that,” said the Basel CFO in an interview. At the same time, she is also very concerned about the interim results. “If red-green loses the majority, I cannot continue my social policy, despite my good results “.
Slap for the president of Basel
The red-green majority in Basel is on the brink. Basel district president Elisabeth Ackermann (Greens) gets a miserable result and even worse than the two challengers from LPG and LDP. Ackermann received the receipt from the voters for his behavior on the Basel historical museum affair.
His opponents Esther Keller (GLP) and Stephanie Eymann (LDP) had hardly any recipes for how the conflict over the museum should have been better resolved, but they both got more votes than Ackermann today. However, Keller and Eymann triumphed in the primary season with a refreshing appearance. This shows once again that government elections are personality choices and that one cannot simply rely on being elected by his own people.
An analysis by SRF editor Benedikt Erni.
Wrinkled district president
I was disappointed, says former district president Elisabeth Ackermann (Greens) in an interview. She explains her poor performance with her unpopular decision to separate from the director of the Historical Museum. However, he wants to run again on the second ballot.
Stunned by the Greens
The Greens are dismayed by the poor performance of their district president, Elisabeth Ackermann. They threaten to be expelled from office after the first vote. The majority of the red-green government in Basel-Stadt is in danger.
The impact is incredibly deep for me, the result completely amazes me.
Most of the red-green government in danger
SP is known as the worst case scenario. SP President Pascal Pfister believes that many Basel residents wanted to miss out on a red-green memo in the first vote. But nothing is lost yet. The SP must now do his best to roll up the field from behind.
The race for the regional council remains open
According to the vote count in the letter, Basel District President Elisabeth Ackermann (GB) is clearly behind rival Stephanie Eymann (LDP). Neither candidate achieved an absolute majority. In third place is Esther Keller (GLP).
The interim results show a surprising picture
Surprise candidate Eymann has to stay home
Ironically, the surprise candidate for the Basel elections, Stephanie Eymann (PLD), cannot celebrate because she is in quarantine. After counting the votes by letter, he barely made the leap to government. This result could change again in the final result.
Thank your voters by video message.
The race for the Presidency of the Governing Council is open
No one has yet achieved an absolute majority of 21,960 votes for the presidency of the Governing Council. Stephanie Eymann (LDP) is ahead with 15,982 votes, followed by Elisabeth Ackermann with 14,163 votes. Esther Keller (GLP) received 8,996 votes.
Intermediate results with surprises
Four candidates for government have already been chosen: the former Tanja Soland (SP), Lukas Engelberger (CVP), Conradin Cramer (LDP) and the newly elected Beat Jans (SP). Already on the first ballot you get enough votes to be elected to the government of Basel.
Stephanie Eymann (PLD) achieved a surprisingly good result: after counting the votes by letter, she made the leap to government. The liberal Eymann barely achieved an absolute majority. This result could change again in the final result.
Kaspar Sutter (SP), Baschi Dürr (FDP), Esther Keller (GLP), Elisabeth Ackermann (GB), Stefan Suter (SVP) and Christine Kaufmann (EVP) must move to a second vote.
In the last places are, as expected, Christian Müller (FUK), Eric Weber (VA) and Heidi Mück (GB)
These are just the results of the votes in letters. The experience of the last elections shows that the adjusted results, that of Stephanie Eymann, can still change.
Correspondence shows that four candidates have been chosen with certainty
Elected on the first ballot:
- Tanja Soland (SP)

Long queue in front of the electoral office
In the morning, a long line formed in front of the electoral office in the Basel city hall. Many voters still want to cast their votes at the polls.

High voter turnout is expected
For those who voted by mail, turnout on Saturday was 43.6 percent. This is already two percentage points more than in the last elections four years ago. At the time, the turnout on Sunday was just under 42 percent. Due to the high turnout, the first results of the parliamentary elections will arrive later than expected.
The starting point for the election of the governing council
Two seats are to be filled on the seven-member Basel governing council after the resignation of two SP government councilors. The bourgeois parties FDP, CVP and LDP want to take over not only the regional council with Stephanie Eymann (LDP), but also the majority in the government.
The starting point of the parliamentary elections
After the Greens and the LPG have risen dramatically in the National Council elections and in other cantons, the green wave could also continue in Basel-Stadt. It will be interesting to see if SVP, FDP and CVP will continue to lose voting shares in the Grand Council and if these will benefit the LDP.
Basel-Stadt chooses
Welcome to the live ticker of the Basel elections! The last polls close at 12:00. Those who vote by mail have already been counted, representing more than 90 percent of all voters in Basel-Stadt. The first results, published shortly after 12 noon, are already very informative.
