In the exam (Estonian)
Sergei on kodakondsuseta isik ja elab püsivalt Narvas. 2025. aastal hääletas ta Narva volikogu valimistel. Kas ta saab hääletada ka järgmistel volikogu valimistel?
- aNo, the right of a stateless person to vote in council elections has endedEi, kodakondsuseta isiku hääleõigus volikogu valimistel on lõppenudCorrect answer
- bYes, because he has already voted in council elections in the same city beforeJah, sest ta on samas linnas juba varem volikogu valimistel hääletanud
- cYes, because he lives permanently in the city of Narva and has a residence permit thereJah, sest ta elab püsivalt Narva linnas ja tal on seal elamisluba
Why?
Under the 2025 amendment to the Constitution, the council elections of October 2025 were the last in which a stateless person could vote. Since 1 March 2026, § 156 subsection 2 no longer lists stateless persons among those who have the right to vote. Permanent residence or having voted before does not change this. (PS § 156)
