a quarter of

Runoff election in Mülheim an der Ruhr: result not foreseeable
Given this situation, the final result of the local elections in Mülheim an der Ruhr is still completely open when there is
a runoff between Buchholz and Griefahn
on September 27th
.
Neither of them has been Lord Mayor so far,
incumbent Ulrich Scholten
(SPD) did not run again for health reasons.
Buchholz, however, already works as a
department head for education, sport and culture
at the city of Mülheim.
“The trust of the citizens in the administration must be restored!”, The administration man is convinced.
There is
great
disenchantment with politics
in Mülheim
.
In 2015
, the
turnout was
only
36.6 percent
.
Result of the runoff election expected in the evening
Griefahn, on the other hand, already has a long career in
federal politics
behind him.
Born in Mülheim, she was a
member
of the Lower Saxony state parliament and the
Bundestag
.
She is also co-founder of
Greenpeace Germany
.
The two résumés could hardly be more different: here the roots in local politics, there the big stage of federal politics.
The runoff election on September 27th will show what resonates with the population of Mülheim.
The
result
is
expected
in
the evening
.
