BSW defines election program and candidates for state elections

The Saxon state association of the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW) is to line up for the state elections on Saturday. At two formal party conferences on the same day in Dresden, the election program for the state election will first be adopted (from 10.00 a.m.) and then the candidates for the state list will be voted on (from 1.00 p.m.). Federal party leader Sahra Wagenknecht will be a guest.

The BSW founded its first state association in Saxony at the end of February. Its chairpersons are former Left Party member of parliament Sabine Zimmermann and entrepreneur Jörg Scheibe. The BSW recently achieved 11 percent in election polls in the state. The BSW is also running in the local and European elections in Saxony on June 9.
