So I'm a little confused about if any electoral reforms were made or what's happening with the system. It seems the electoral system had a quirk in it that allowed it to be possible for votes cast for a party in certain states to actually result in less seats for that party because of the overhangs, which in 2011 the German Constitutional Court rightfully declared unconstitutional, but a new system wasn't set up in time. So is this election under the old declared unconstitutional system? That seems pretty odd. Would it be possible for the results ever to be invalidated because of them system and a new election forced?
