Wooden churches
8.50 p.m., Miesbach district: So, after a short breath, it is time for a first analysis of this incredibly exciting run-off election evening. The biggest surprises are the two SPD victories in Bad Wiessee and Otterfing . But the last-minute victory of Gerhard Braunmiller (CSU) in Miesbach has also given many observers a pulse.
The detailed analyzes of all decisions as well as the statements of the candidates will follow shortly. Thank you in advance for reading!
District election in Miesbach: Wolfgang Rzehak (Greens) voted out in the runoff election - new district administrator has been determined
20:31, Miesbach district: over and over for the incumbent: Wolfgang Rzehak (Greens) did not stand a chance in the runoff election against Olaf von Löwis (CSU). Löwis is clearly elected as the new district administrator with 65.41 percent. Rzehak only managed 34.59 percent. Voter turnout: 65.29 percent.
Congratulations dahoam: The new district administrator Olaf von Löwis (CSU) accepts the congratulations of his wife Sibylle.

8:23 p.m., District of Miesbach: Where's the problem? Only one last quick report is missing, then Olaf von Löwis (CSU) has been appointed as the new district administrator. Congratulations can already be received now, because with 65.61 percent he is ahead of Wolfgang Rzehak (Greens). The incumbent experiences a surprisingly bitter evening in this clarity.
8:14 p.m., Miesbach district: Before the last results come, maybe a look at Northern Bavaria: The other incumbent Green District Administrator in Bavaria, who came into office in 2014 at the same time as Rzehak, grabbed it again in the first ballot two weeks ago. Jens Marco Scherf defended his office in the Lower Franconian district of Miltenberg with a clear majority. The Green achieved 69.25 percent of the vote, giving his CSU challenger Armin Bohnhoff no chance. Just by the way…
Runoff election in Waakirchen: last minute turn - new mayor has been chosen
8:12 pm, Waakirchen: What a turn in Waakirchen! Norbert Kerkel (FWG) did it - and still very clearly. He beat Rudi Reber (ABV, 45.70 percent) with 54.30 percent. The FWG district chairman is the new mayor of Waakirchen. Voter turnout: 74.46 percent.
8:08 p.m., Miesbach district: Slowly, the district CSU can get the sparkling wine out of the fridge: after 78 of 84 quick reports, 65.65 percent of Olaf von Löwis is almost impossible to catch up with Wolfgang Rzehak (Greens).
8:03 pm, Waakirchen: Waakirchen makes it exciting. The election workers have to count again. One thing is clear: in Schaftlach, Norbert Kerkel got more votes than Rudi Reber. Exciting!
7:57 p.m., Miesbach district: Two hours after the start of the counting, only two results are still pending : the office of the district administrator and the mayor of Waakirchen
Victory with 19 (!) Votes: Robert Kühn (SPD) is the new mayor after runoff in Bad Wiessee
7.55 p.m., Bad Wiessee: How tight was that? As our reporter reports, Robert Kühn (SPD) in Bad Wiessee had just 19 votes more than his opponent Florian Sareiter (CSU).
Sensation after runoff in Otterfing: SPD conquers mayor
7:52 p.m., Otterfing: The next SPD sensation on this memorable run-off election evening : Michael Falkenhahn (SPD) is the new mayor of Otterfing! He gets 53.44 percent (1514 votes), CSU opponent Robert Schüßlbauer only gets 46.56 percent (1319 votes). In one of the three polling stations, the two were exactly the same. With Falkenhahn and Robert Kühn in Bad Wiessee, the SPD is now providing two mayors in the Miesbach district!
7.44 p.m., Waakirchen: The surprise in Waakirchen is becoming more and more likely: Two out of three electoral districts are counted and Rudi Reber (ABV) leads with 55 percent. However, the result is still pending from Schaftlach, where Norbert Kerkel (FWG) is at home. Kerkel was the king of votes in the first election and was considered a favorite.

7.40 p.m., Miesbach district: In comparison , the district election is almost boring. With 66 percent, Olaf von Löwis (CSU) is almost out of reach before incumbent Wolfgang Rzehak (34 percent). 71 out of 84 quick messages were received.
7:32 p.m., Bad Wiessee: The surprise at Tegernsee is perfect! Robert Kühn (SPD) is the new mayor of Bad Wiessee. The SPD man hit extremely thin with his 50.35 percent Florian Sareiter (CSU, 49.65 percent)! Voter turnout: 63.36 percent.
7.30 p.m., Otterfing: Where is Otterfing actually? Our reporter provides the answer: It still counts and still counts and still counts. Only one of three polling stations (counting stations) is through. Everything indicates that it will be a very close result - either for Robert Schüßlbauer (CSU) or Michael Falkenhahn (SPD).
7:27 p.m., Miesbach: And there it happened: In a heartbeat finale, Gerhard Braunmiller (CSU) made it into the executive chair in Miesbach's town hall! The result: Braunmiller 51.78 percent, Walter Fraunhofer (independent) 48.22 percent. Voter turnout: 66.47 percent.
7:25 p.m., Miesbach: Change of leadership in the district town! After eight out of nine quick reports, Gerhard Braunmiller (CSU) is now ahead with 50.68 percent. Did he catch Walter Walter shortly before the goal?
7:24 pm, Waakirchen: Is there a surprise coming up in Waakirchen? After the first interim result, Rudi Reber (ABV) is 57.2 percent ahead of Norbert Kerkel (FWG, 42.8 percent).
7.20 p.m., Bad Wiessee: Did anyone say anything about excitement in Miesbach? In Bad Wiessee it really gets going. After two out of four quick reports, Florian Sareiter (CSU) with 50.46 percent is not even one percent ahead of Robert Kühn (SPD)! Will an SPD man become mayor here?
7.17 p.m., Miesbach: racing heart in Miesbach! Gerhard Braunmiller (CSU) is catching up. But Walter Fraunhofer (independent, FWG / SPD) is still extremely thin with 50.31 percent. Six out of nine quick reports are there.
7:13 p.m., Holzkirchen: Oops: Of all people in his home town of Holzkirchen, Olaf von Löwis (CSU) does not do so well. 59.71 percent are quite little compared to other municipalities.
7.10 p.m., Miesbach: High tension in Miesbach! After five out of nine quick reports, Walter Fraunhofer (independent) with 51.29 percent is just ahead of Gerhard Braunmiller (CSU) with 48.71 percent! In the first round, Braunmiller had been able to get the most votes. Is the choice of Greens pro Fraunhofer the decisive factor here?
7 p.m., Miesbach district: The trend in the election of the district administrator is solidifying. After 57 out of 84 quick reports received, Olaf von Löwis (CSU) is still clearly ahead of incumbent Wolfgang Rzehak (Greens) with over 66 percent. It therefore suggests that the CSU can actually retake the district office.
6.55 p.m., Holzkirchen: Christoph Schmid (CSU) is through. With 56.45 percent, he wins the runoff election in Holzkirchen ahead of Robert Wiechmann (Greens). Voter turnout: 68.02 percent.
18:53, Gmund: Bitter for Wolfgang Rzehak: The green district administrator is not even in front of his challenger in his home town of Gmund. Four out of five constituencies are counted: Löwis is just over 60 percent.
6:51 p.m., Bad Wiessee: In Bad Wiessee, 30 election workers are currently counting around 1,000 postal envelopes - around 200 more than two weeks ago. Also new: Almost all helpers wear gloves, just over half protective masks. The first results are expected at 7 p.m.
6.46 p.m., Valley: The first mayor of the runoff election has been determined! Bernhard Schäfer (FWG) won the race in Valley with 52.87 percent. Anton Huber (CSU) was left behind with 47.13 percent. The turnout is 77.16 percent.
6.45 p.m., Bad Wiessee: Even in the municipality on Lake Tegernsee, the diagrams for the district and mayor elections are still empty.
6.43 p.m., Miesbach: Where's the district town? No results for the mayoral election are available yet.
6.40 p.m., Holzkirchen: In Holzkirchen it comes down to an election victory for Christoph Schmid. The CSUler is ahead of Robert Wiechmann (Greens) after ten of eleven counted voting districts with over 56 percent.
18:39, Schliersee: Schliersee is finished with the district election: 66.9 percent voted for Olaf von Löwis, 33.1 percent for incumbent Wolfgang Rzehak.
18:35, Miesbach district: The intermediate result at the Landratswahkl should cheer the CSU supporters. Candidate Olaf von Löwis with 67.32 percent is clearly ahead of incumbent Wolfgang Rzehak (Greens) with 32.68 percent. Of course, a lot can still turn this evening!
6.30 p.m., Valley: The return of the election documents in Valley is enormous: 2049 envelopes were delivered. 2618 were entitled to vote for the election of the mayor. However, the number of valid votes is relevant for the turnout.
6:26 pm, Holzkirchen: excitement in Holzkirchen! After eight of eleven counted voting districts in Holzkirchen, CSU man Christoph Schmid is around 55 percent, the green Robert Wiechmann is (still) lagging behind with 45 percent.
6:25 pm, Miesbach / Holzkirchen: Miesbach and Holzkirchen are the two heavyweights in the district. Together, the district town and the market town make up almost 22,000 of 76,873 eligible voters in the entire district.
6:23 p.m., Fischbachau: Fischbachau has quick counters: At 6:23 p.m., 6 out of 7 districts are already counted for the district council election. The community was also the first to send a quick report. At 6:13 p.m., just 13 minutes after the end of voting!
6.20 p.m., Miesbach district: Löwis 68.75 percent, Rzehak 31.25 percent: These are the first figures for the district election. However, only 20 out of 84 quick reports were received. So there should still be something going on.
6.15 p.m., Miesbach district: Was to be expected: The fastest will submit a municipality that has no mayor runoff. Fischbachau is slightly ahead of Schliersee at 6.15 p.m. and in the very first interim result is clearly ahead of both Olaf von Löwis (CSU). That doesn't have to mean much, the last word is far from being spoken. Especially since the largest municipalities in the district with the most voters - Holzkirchen and Miesbach - will make it exciting for a long time, because a mayor runoff is counted there first.
6 p.m., Miesbach district: That's it, the voting for the run-off election has ended. Now the exciting counting phase begins. When the first results are available depends on the pace of the election workers. However, since the runoff vote was carried out as a pure postal vote due to the corona virus, the counting is much more complex.
5.30 p.m., Miesbach district: Another half an hour before the counting begins. Shortly after 6 p.m., the mailboxes in the town halls are emptied, and then the election workers get to work.
5 p.m., Waakirchen: There is one more special feature in Waakirchen: only in this community is Rudi Reber (ABV) the candidate for a citizen list in the runoff election.
4.45 p.m., Miesbach district: The SPD is also represented with two candidates in the runoff election: Michael Falkenhahn in Otterfing and Robert Kühn in Bad Wiessee. If you add the non-partisan, but supported by the SPD Miesbacher candidate Walter Fraunhofer, the Social Democrats even get three applicants.
4.30 p.m., Miesbach district: Another look at the Greens: Although the party has won the municipal elections and is now represented in all municipal councils except Irschenberg, it has only two men in the run-off election: Wolfgang Rzehak as a district candidate and Robert Wiechmann as an applicant for the mayor's office in Holzkirchen.
4:15 p.m., Miesbach district: The final spurt for the submission of postal ballot documents for the runoff election in the Miesbach district is underway. Those who have already fulfilled their duty can take a look at the composition of the newly elected district council.
4 p.m., Miesbach district: Another thing for the statistics fans among us: the CSU is represented in almost all run-off ballot decisions this Sunday, only not in Waakirchen. If all candidates actually prevail, twelve of the 17 town halls plus the district office would be in CSU hands: Miesbach, Holzkirchen, Otterfing, Valley and Bad Wiessee (hypothetically based on runoff vote), Bayrischzell, Rottach-Egern, Schliersee, Tegernsee and Weyarn (already fixed after the first ballot) as well as Irschenberg and Kreuth (no mayoral election took place here). The FWG could ideally unite five town halls: Valley and Waakirchen (hypothetically after runoff), Fischbachau and Hausham (already fixed after the first ballot) and Gmund (no mayor election took place here). If you include the non-partisan but supported by the FWG candidate Walter Fraunhofer in Miesbach, ideally there could be six executive chairs for the FWG.
3.30 p.m., Miesbach district: Even before the results of the run-off election are known, it is already certain that there will be a political color change in the town hall in several municipalities: the era of the Wiesseer Block ends in Bad Wiessee because incumbent Peter Höß no longer took office and his faction no longer offered a successor candidate. This is where Florian Sareiter (CSU) and Robert Kühn (SPD) make up the office. In Fischbachau, however, the CSU has to vacate its place in the town hall. Incumbent Josef Lechner no longer ran and Josef Obermaier (CSU) was unable to counter the brilliant victory of Johannes Lohwasser (FWG). Irschenberg's new mayor, Klaus Meixner (CSU), has also been in office for a long time and prevailed in the early election because of the unexpectedly deceased Hans Schönauer (FWG Niklasreuth).
3 p.m., Miesbach district: Interesting detail on the side: When Miesbach's town hall boss retires at the end of April, all executive chairs in the town halls in the district are exclusively in male hands. Although there were female mayor candidates in several municipalities and also in the city of Miesbach, none of them made it into the runoff election. As is well known, the same also applies to the district election.
2.30 p.m., Miesbach district: Election day is on, but everyone is at home. Because of the corona virus, there are no polling stations for the mayor and district administrator in the run-off election, voting is only possible by letter. Anyone who has just made their cross can still vote. Simply drop the letter at the town hall - done. This is possible until 6 p.m. We continuously report live here about the runoff election in the district of Miesbach. The results are in real time. Just stay tuned and read along!
