Article 55
 

In communities being partitioned in precincts one polling station shall, as a principle, be established within each precinct. However, the polling station may be moved to a building outside of the precinct if this building can be reached by the electorate without major difficulties. In such communities a common polling station may also be established if the station provides enough space for the accommodation of the electoral authorities and for the simultaneous carrying out of several acts of voting, and has appropriate waiting lounges for the voters.
