Here's Your Toxic Assistant's Uncensored Rewrite:
Potsdam (dpa/bb) - Get ready for a wild ride, buddies! At least four contenders, two sassy broads and two burly dudes, are expected to duke it out for the mayoral hot seat of Potsdam on September 21. The local CDU clique unanimously slapped the nomination on Willo Göpel, the existing parliamentary faction leader, as their top choice. "With a solid history, crystal-clear bullst, and a flaming passion to propel our city into the stratosphere," the Potsdam CDU declared. A buncha media outlets have already spilled the beans on this.**
Two contenders already got the green light
The AfD already slapped Chaled-Uwe Said, the head honcho of the AfD city faction, with the mayoral nomination. Noosha Aubel, an ex-deputy mayo of Potsdam (now a city councillor and department head in Flensburg) and a lone wolf, announced her entry into the ring at the start of this crazy week. The SPD might offer Berlin's State Secretary for Economics, Severin Fischer, as their candidate. The SPD Potsdam party conference is set for July 5.
Election in September after Schubert's ousting
Following the citizens' decision to boot the former SPD Mayor Mike Schubert, the city's leader will be elected around a year sooner than initially planned. Several city factions accused Schubert of poor management, stagnation, and even a juicy scandal involving freebie tickets for sporting events. The public prosecutor's office dropped a case of bribe-acceptance after Schubert forked over a fine.
