Local Elections 2025 Interview: Oliver Janssen, Candidate of The Party

In the picturesque town of Willich, Germany, a surprising political candidate is making waves. Oliver Janssen, a trained forester who works for the communal operations Willich (GBW), is stepping into the political arena with a unique approach to politics.

Janssen, a fan of heavy metal music, has attended renowned festivals like Wacken and Eier-mit-Speck, but his political ambitions were born out of political disillusionment. His mayoral bid is part of the "Die Partei" election program, a party known for its satirical approach to politics and doing "silly things with a serious background."

Janssen, currently meeting on a park bench by the Niers, is not your typical politician. He originally started an apprenticeship as a carpenter but quit after a year. His political involvement, however, has been a consistent part of his life.

If elected, Janssen would be the boss of his current boss, a prospect that seems to excite him. His political campaign aims to bring fun to politics, a refreshing change from the traditional political landscape.

Janssen stresses that his love for metal music and outdoor activities, such as working as a forester, will not interfere with his duties as a mayor. He believes he has contributed to increasing voter turnout and enjoys being in nature.

Janssen is a single father and has the support of his friends and family in his mayoral bid. For more information about Oliver Janssen and his mayoral campaign, visit www.die-partei-kreis-viersen.de/oliver-janssen-voll-willich-bm-zu-waeden/.
