Chaos at the party conference: AfD has the hall cleared. Members and guests had to leave the hall; later only members with voting rights were to be allowed back in.
The mood in the hall was very heated. Board members argued openly about how to proceed, and the various camps booed each other. The two-day special party conference at the weekend is based on a letter of protest from 22 of the 37 district associations, which accuse seven board members of blocking the state chairmen Markus Frohnmaier and Emil Sanzen.
