Should we add the election of the president and vice-president on this page ? I thought so initially, but since it happens every year, it is not really coordinated with the general election of the Federal Council. What about the Chancellor ? It would seem reasonable, as it is part of the same election one every four years (see the last results here, for reference). Schutz (talk) 10:02, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
- The results of the elections for president and vice president are also not very interesting because these elections are not contested. Maybe a list somewhere (who was elected when with how many votes) would do. I agree that we should add the chancellor elections, though. Sandstein (talk) 16:46, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
- I'll take care of adding the chancellor in this page. As for the president and vice-president, I agree with you, and List of Presidents of the Swiss Confederation is probably enough for now. Schutz (talk) 16:52, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, done. I've just noticed that there is a mistake in the page I cited above (supposed to be in English, but actually in French): the number of votes for Mrs Casanova is incorrect (123 instead of 124); the page in German and Italian is correct... I will email them. Schutz (talk) 22:35, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks. I recommend that we use the official parliamentary record as the source for election data, in this case: http://www.parlament.ch/ab/frameset/d/v/4801/260621/d_v_4801_260621_260669.htm. I'll have to re-check the figures for the election from that source once I have the time. Sandstein (talk) 06:37, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
