Art. 79 Elimination vote

1 If more than two pro­pos­als have been made on the same sub­ject mat­ter, then an elim­in­a­tion vote must be held un­til a vote can be held on which of two pro­pos­als is to be ac­cep­ted.

2 The or­der of vot­ing on the pro­pos­als must be struc­tured in such a way that a vote is held first on the pro­pos­als that dif­fer the least from each oth­er in con­tent, work­ing through the pro­pos­als un­til those that dif­fer the most are reached.

3 If it is not pos­sible to de­cide on the or­der of vot­ing ac­cord­ing to the cri­ter­ia laid down in para­graph 2, an elim­in­a­tion vote is held deal­ing firstly with the pro­pos­als of the as­sembly mem­bers, then the pro­pos­als of the com­mit­tee minor­it­ies and fi­nally the pro­pos­al of the Fed­er­al Coun­cil. A vote is then held to de­cide between the pro­pos­al that wins the elim­in­a­tion vote and the pro­pos­al of the com­mit­tee ma­jor­ity.

4 The or­der of vot­ing on the pro­pos­als may not be altered by a con­tin­gent pro­pos­al.85
