Vienna Pass-Egal-Election at the Academy

In the 2025 Vienna municipal and state elections, more than 610,000 people living in Vienna will not have the right to vote. This means that more than one in three people of voting age living in Vienna are excluded from voting due to their citizenship. But democracy thrives on participation, not exclusion!

In this election, everyone has the opportunity to symbolically cast their vote – regardless of passport or origin. Solidarity votes from people with Austrian citizenship are warmly welcome.

The advertising poster for the Vienna Pass-Egal Election was designed by Stefanie Weber as part of an internal academy student competition and will be available here soon!

Vienna Passport-Egal Election:
SOS Mitmensch, together with partners, has been organizing "Pass-Egal-Wahlen" (translated: no-matter-what-passport elections) in advance of federal and state elections since 2013. A comprehensive FAQ on the Vienna municipal and state elections can be found here: https://www.sosmitmensch.at/faq-pass-egal-wahl.
To conclude the Vienna Pass-Egal election, a large democracy festival will take place on Wednesday, April 23, at Yppenplatz!
