Stefan Berchtold: New hopes for Gauting's mayoral election in 2026!
Something is happening in Gauting! An important step for the upcoming local elections in 2026 was taken at a public meeting on Sunday. The group “People for Gauting/Pirates” has decided on its electoral list, and the candidate for mayor is Stefan Berchtold. He has lived in Unterbrunn since 2005 and brings with him remarkable experience. Born in Stockdorf in 1968, Berchtold has been involved in the community in a variety of cultural and political areas since the 1990s. From his membership in the art association to his role as a musician and music teacher, he is passionate about the interests of the Gautinger people.
Stefan Berchtold is not only a face of the community, but also an active politician. He has been a member of the local council since 2020 and is committed to issues such as sustainable development, commerce, culture, transport and finance. “I want to move things forward and have a good handle on the challenges of the future,” he says. And with the Günther Klinge Prize in his pocket, Berchtold can look back on his achievements with pride. He is the fourth applicant for the mayor's office in the Würmtal community, which shows that a lot is moving. He has strong competitors in Maximilian Platzer from the CSU, Matthias Ilg from the Greens and Harald Ruhbaum from Mifü. Brigitte Kössinger from the CSU, who was in office for twelve years, is no longer running, which further loosens up the political landscape.
Barrier-free elections for everyone
In a completely different but important area, the Federal Office for Accessibility has taken the initiative to ensure that elections are accessible to everyone. They have developed pictograms for polling stations that make it easier to get to the polling station and provide signage in the polling station. These pictograms can be used royalty-free and can be downloaded in various formats. This means that all voters, regardless of their physical abilities, can take part without any problems. Anyone who needs a little help can navigate more easily using these clear and easily recognizable icons.
In times when inclusion is becoming increasingly important, such measures are essential. The federal agency ensures that every voter understands where they have to go and what the process looks like. Examples of pictograms include directional signs to entrances, ballot boxes and even accessible toilets. With these signs that are loud and clear, every voice can be heard.
Things will soon get down to business in Gauting! With Stefan Berchtold as a breath of fresh air in politics and the barrier-free measures for the elections, the community seems to be on the right track into the future. Let's be surprised at how the situation will develop until the election!
