Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the challenge to the cantonal law and the later vote was admissible under federal voting-rights rules.
Decisione estratta
The attack on the law and the ensuing vote was admissible; the challenge to the voting edict was not, because the cantonal remedies had not been exhausted.
Motivazione estratta
A voter may contest a preparatory act and, if the vote occurs during the federal proceedings, the request is understood to include annulment of the vote. However, the complaint against the voting edict required prior use of the cantonal complaint route under cantonal political-rights law.
