Election Officials Reject AfD Postal-Voting ClaimsTino Chrupalla and Ulrich Siegmund provided no concrete evidence for alleged manipulation in care homes.
- Tino Chrupalla and Ulrich Siegmund alleged manipulation in care homes but provided no concrete evidence.
- Election officials Christian Boden and Christa Dieckmann rejected the allegations, citing mechanisms designed to protect postal voting.
- Boden said the public vote count can be observed by anyone without prior registration.
- During the 2021 federal election, more than 47 percent voted by mail amid the coronavirus pandemic.
"If I truly think that manipulation is taking place, and I don't trust the people in the polling station, why don't I go there and see for myself? The counting is public. You don't even need to register for that. Poll workers are also being recruited."— Christian Boden, State Election Commissioner for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, in an interview with Tagesspiegel
