FDP criticizes the CDU and SPD at the election of AfD man as deputy district mayor

AfD candidate elected as deputy district mayor

The election of an AfD representative as deputy district mayor at the district council of West in Saarbrücken ensures controversy. Werner Schwaben was elected with ten votes, while the CDU candidate Volker Arnold received seven votes. The FDP Saar criticizes the behavior of the CDU and SPD, which may have made votes for the AfD candidate possible.

The FDP criticizes the disagreement of the CDU and SPD, which is ultimately coming to the AfD. The election of the CDU local mayor in Heusweiler, despite the SPD's offer, also shows the disregard for the CDU's incompatibility decision in the federal government, according to FDP general secretary Marcel Mucker.

At the election of the district mayor, incumbent Isolde Ries (SPD) received only ten votes, while Hans-Jürgen Altes was elected by the CDU parliamentary group with eleven votes. This throws speculation about possible AfD votes for him.

The choice of an AfD representative into such a position raises questions about the political landscape and the cooperation between the parties. It remains to be seen how this decision will affect the political dynamics in Saarbrücken in the long term.
