The supplementary decree outlining the definition of who was Jewish was passed on 14 November, and the Reich Citizenship Law came into force on that date. Jews were no longer German citizens and did not have the right to vote. [58] Jews and Gypsies were not allowed to vote in Reichstag elections or the 1938 Austrian Anschluss referendum. [59]
These laws excluded Jews from having citizenship and marrying or having sex with German women. They also deprived the Jews of basic political rights such as voting rights, and the right to hold a political office.

Geltungsjude was the term for people who were considered Jews by the first supplementary decree to the Nuremberg Laws from 14 November 1935.

In Nazi Germany, after the Nuremberg Laws were passed in 1935, sexual relations and marriages between Aryans and non-Aryans were prohibited. [note 1] Although the laws were primarily against Jews at first, they were later extended to the Romani, Blacks, and their offspring.
Although the propaganda aimed at racial preservation was aimed at the youth, adults also were subject since the mid-1930s, to the belief that Jews (including women and children) were not only dangerous to Germany but also subhuman. [137] In 1935, the Nuremberg Laws made any sexual relations between Aryans and non-Aryans a criminal offence. [228]
