Hi everyone, I hope y'all have enjoyed a few slices of Zopf and have started well into this fine Sunday!

As you all might know, it's a voting Sunday today, this means the polls are still open until 12 o'clock. First projections are then expected shortly after.

Today we vote on the following federal topics:

• Popular initiative 'Yes to a ban on full facial coverings'
• Federal Act on Electronic Identification Services (e-ID Act)
• Economic partnership agreement with Indonesia

For coverage info, I'm recommending:

• If you just want the numbers, the Federal Statistic Office (FSO) publishes and constantly updates them here:
  • Results published by the Bundesamt für Statistik (BFS) in German
  • Results published by the Office fédéral de la statistique (OFS) in French
  • Results published by the Ufficio federale di statistica (UST) in Italian
• If you want them in some neutral-ish context, I can strongly recommend the SRF/RTS coverage:
  • Der Abstimmungssonntag bei SRF (in German)
  • Coverage at RTS in French
  • Unfortunately didn't find a good link for the coverage schedule in French and/or English but I'll add them as soon as I find them!
• I really really like the App VoteInfo, available on iOS/Android, which also gives access to the FSO numbers and displays them quite nicely.
• If you want some fancy-pants graphs and/or some background coverage, I'm inclined to recommend any of the Tamedia prints, but they are paywalled (the other coverage info so far are not)

You can find the old discussion post on this topic here: Discussion Thread for the popular vote on 7 March 2021.

So, happy discussion and please, stay civil.
