'The Bonding of Electoral Eligibility to Residence in Germany. A Critique from a Constitutional and Constitutional History View' Since the first Federal Electoral Law (1949), the active voters have been demanded to have a place of residence in Germany for at least three months on election day. For Germans residing permanently abroad, this restriction means the deprivation of the substantive right to vote for the German Bundestag. The present paper examines the compatibility of this restriction on voting rights with the german constitution and furthermore sheds light on the historical implications, which were invoked until recently by, among others, the Federal Constitutional Court.
