CDU's Mario Voigt Wins Thüringen Minister President Election with 51 Votes
Dec 12, 2024, 09:32 AM
Mario Voigt, a CDU politician, has been elected as the new Minister President of Thüringen in the first round of voting with 51 votes. Despite his coalition lacking one vote for a majority, Voigt secured the position with the support of opposition parties, notably Die Linke. The election process was closely watched as it involved complex negotiations among democratic parties to form a government. Voigt, who took a risk by running for the office, now leads a coalition of CDU, SPD, and BSW. His leadership is expected to bring stability to Thüringen's political landscape, although the exact terms of cooperation with Die Linke are still being worked out.
