Hey there!

After their dismal attempt to return to the Bundestag, the previous FDP state chairman, Oliver Luksic, decided it was time to hang up his hat. He'd been the state boss for a whopping 14 years.
As for the FDP in Saarland, they've been MIA in the state parliament for quite some time now. In the 2022 state election, they couldn't even crack the 5% hurdle, only managing a meager 4.8% of the votes.
