Content and overview

  • How strong are the parties in the individual cantons?
  • Where was the Social Democratic Party (SP/PS) strongest/weakest?
  • Where is the divide between the French and German speaking regions, the "Röstigraben"?
  • How many people voted?

The maps of the National Council elections can be searched chronologically by decade and date, and by party. The maps show the electoral strength of the political parties and the number of votes obtained by the most important parties and party groups.

The maps of the popular votes can be searched chronologically by decade and date, and by topic. The voter participation during each popular vote weekend can be retrieved and is also visualised cartographically. You can find information about the voting statistics on the Swiss Statistics website.
