History

edit

The grouping of electors was founded on 11 December 2023. It ran for the first time in the 2024 local elections in the Vogtlandkreis,[3] in which it achieved a result of 2.1% and thus won two seats in the county council.[4]

Some candidates were already active in local politics before 2024. For example, Manja Tröger, who was elected to the county council for the Greens in 2019, and Gunnar Gemeinhardt, who received over 20% in the 2015 district council election as an independent.
