A Shocking Setback for the Green Party
Greens Elect Not to Designate a Substitute for Aeffner's Position
In a heartbreaking turn of events, the Green Party's constituency of Pforzheim-Enzkreis is bereft of a candidate for the upcoming federal election following the tragic demise of Stephanie Aeffner.
It's a tough pill to swallow for the Green Party, as they won't be fielding a new direct candidate due to the unexpected circumstances. In Germany's federal election, there are no substitute candidates for direct ones, thus leaving the Greens in Pforzheim-Enzkreis without a representative. Only second votes will be cast for the party.
The Green Party expressed their heartfelt condolences, acknowledging that Aeffner was a fervent advocate for a world that ensured equal opportunities for all people. In the ensuing weeks, the Greens plan to campaign vigorously for every second vote in the Pforzheim federal constituency, echoing Aeffner's unwavering spirit.
Moving Up the State Ranks
Amidst the chaos, it's worth mentioning that the state list of Alliance 90/The Greens has already been elected internally. Given the situation, there's no substitute candidate in the state list either. As per the election rules, the state list position 15, which Aeffner held, will now remain vacant. The candidates on the subsequent list positions will automatically advance to fill the gap left by Aeffner.
Stay tuned for further updates as the Green Party navigates this challenging time. Official announcements from the Green Party or local news sources in Germany will provide the most accurate and up-to-date information about potential replacements or other developments.
