Key legal question
Whether the cantonal court wrongly refused to hear the challenge to the non-re-election as a politically predominant decision
Extracted holding
The non-re-election of the board members was not a decision with predominantly political character; judicial review was available.
Extracted reasoning
The board was a specialist governing body selected for professional qualifications, not political criteria. The presence of governmental discretion did not suffice to make the decision political, and individual procedural rights, including hearing and fairness, remained justiciable.
