Publisher’s rating: Decathlon n'est pas à l'origine de ces publications et la photo a été manipulée. Il s'agit d'une tentative de phishing.

The review says Decathlon did not publish the offers and that the posts linked to suspicious sites. It reports that the photos were manipulated and describes the posts as a phishing attempt.

Bei der Landtagswahl in Sachsen wurde Wahlbetrug aufgedeckt, weil es in Strehla eine Wahlbeteiligung von 103,5 Prozent gab.

Publisher’s rating: In Strehla wurden auch Briefwahlstimmen aus anderen Orten ausgezählt, wodurch es rein rechnerisch zu einer Wahlbeteiligung von 103,5 Prozent kam. Dass nicht jede kleine Gemeinde Briefwahlscheine selbst auszählen muss, regelt ein Bundesgesetz.

The review finds no evidence of election fraud in Strehla: the reported figure resulted from the town counting postal ballots for other municipalities as well. It says this arrangement is permitted under the Federal Electoral Regulations.
