Bernd Killinger Announces Bid for Second Term as Mayor of Forst
Bernd Killinger, the current mayor of Forst, has announced his candidacy for a second term in the upcoming mayoral election on September 14. Killinger, who has been in office for eight years, expressed his continued desire to proactively shape the development of the community.
Killinger has surpassed the required 100 signatures of support, announcing 204 signatures. Many citizens have supported him personally at campaign events or submitted signatures via email. He stated, "The mayor's office is my calling, and I've never been one to give up."
In his previous announcement, Killinger stated that he would be available for at least two, preferably three terms. He has reorganized and acquired new routines to stabilize his health following a period of burnout depression. Killinger stepped down from his position due to burnout depression in the summer of 2024.
Killinger has introduced new campaign formats to engage with the community. These include 'Moving Consultation Hour', 'Young Consultation Hour', 'Stadium Coffee Break', 'Reading Hour', and 'Visiting Format "A Wild Bernd"'. He hopes to appear last on the ballot in the upcoming election, although an unwritten rule suggests that the first or last spot on the ballot are advantageous.
Hajo Böser (CDU) from Oberhausen-Rheinhausen and Jochen Bender (independent) from Ubstadt-Weiher have also announced their candidacies for the mayoral election. If no candidate receives an absolute majority in the initial election, a runoff election will be held on September 28.
