Voter turnout in the 2024 European elections – a problem with tradition. In the last elections, 50.7 percent of eligible voters cast their votes, which was the highest turnout in over two decades.
Reasons for low voter turnout: Lack of trust and interest in politics. Germans have little interest – especially among conservatives. According to current surveys, the EU will still be the strongest force in European elections and therefore will hold most of the seats in parliament. The European elections will take place from June 6th to 9th, 2024.
