Get ready, Potsdam! The local branch of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) has selected our very own Chaled-Uwe Said as their contender for the upcoming mayor's race in September or October (commissioned date to be confirmed). Said, a distinguished figure within the city, serves as the chairman of the AfD city council fraction.

During a recent press conference, our nominee outlined his ambitions for Potsdam. Said emphasized the need for additional funds in our road infrastructure and the construction of a third Havel crossing to strengthen our connectivity and bolster economic growth.

In an attempt to make Potsdam more self-sufficient, Said also weighed in on the controversial topic of district heating, stating that a halt should be called, with a shift towards alternative energy solutions taking precedence. Furthermore, our candidate announced a halt to providing housing for irregular migrants within the city.

Originally hailing from Dresden, Chaled-Uwe Said has been a Potsdam resident since 1998. With a degree in administrative sciences and experience working in Russia from 2001 to 2002, Said is well-acquainted with the challenges facing our city. He's currently serving as a specialist advisor within the AfD state parliament's working group on economy, work, and energy.

In the wake of the ousting of former Mayor Mike Schubert, Potsdam now needs a fresh face to lead us forward. The parties involved in the mayoral re-election are preparing themselves for the considerable challenge ahead.
