Upstart Builder René Jurisch Set to Take Over Meißen's Town Hall as AfD's Candidate
Far-right party AfD set to gain control of Meißen town hall, with René Jurisch taking the lead. - Far-Right Party AFD Aims to Seize Control of Meissen's Town Hall, Led by René Jurisch
Get ready for a shakeup in Meißen! René Jurisch, a 51-year-old local builder, is set to contest the mayor election as the AfD's candidate. The conservative party selected him with a whopping 18 out of 24 votes, declaring him as a "Meißen native."
Curious about his past? Well, Jurisch had a brief stint with the far-right NPD nearly two decades back. But let's get back to the present, shall we?
Before running for office, our man Jurisch said, "Meißen, the cradle of Saxony, is not only one of the most important and beautiful but also the oldest cities in the Free State. As a native and local constructor, I'm intimately familiar with the city's problems and its strengths." If elected, he plans to serve as a citizen's employee with a check-and-balance approach to governing.
The AfD party made headlines last December when they captured the top seat in a Saxon town hall for the very first time. Their secret to success? Rallying behind an independent candidate in Pirna, none other than Tim Lochner. The Saxon AfD is known for its right-wing extremist views, but they've been legally contesting this classification.
So, brace yourselves, Meißen! René Jurisch is gunning for the top spot on September 7th, and only time will tell if he'll bring change or stir even more controversy. Keep an eye out for more updates as the campaign heats up!
