Answer

C 1

Explanation

In the Bundestag election you have two votes: a first vote for a person in the left column and a second vote for a party in the right column. Only a ballot with at most one cross per column is valid; anyone who makes two or more crosses in a column casts an invalid vote in that column. The crosses may be for different parties (split voting).
