SPD executive committee recommends acceptance of the coalition agreement

The result of the state elections poses major challenges for all democratic forces, according to the resolution passed by the SPD state executive. "With the coalition, we are taking on a shaping role with investments in the future."

It was not possible to push through all ideas and goals, which is part of the nature of a coalition. In addition, everyone must be aware "that as part of a minority government, we are dependent on the democratic opposition groups."

Voting has already begun

The Social Democrats have already started voting. The majority of the current 4,600 or so members received an email with a voting link on Friday. Around 1,000 members are voting by postal ballot. The corresponding documents were sent out on Thursday.
