Someone in the town of Stettlen in canton Bern needs glasses.
It was the only commune in the country to say ‘yes’ to the pension reform after Sunday’s voting.
The initial results showed 63.7% in favour.
But the town clerk had to report that while the number was correct, it was wrongly listed as a ‘yes’, when in fact it should have been a ‘no’.
So, the town rejected the proposal by 63.7%.
