Runoff election: Result of the mayor election in Dortmund does not yet bring a winner

Update from September 13th, 11:13 p.m.:

The counting of a few voting districts is still

pending

in Dortmund, but the result is clear.

The runoff election for the office of

Lord Mayor

will take place in two weeks between the SPD candidate Thomas Westphal and the CDU candidate Andreas Hollstein.

The almost finished counted

council election

shows the following picture in the evening:

SPD

(29.98 percent) ahead of

Greens

(24.81 percent),

CDU

(22.48 percent),

Die Linke

(5.61 percent) and

AfD

(5.47 Percent).

As the polls showed earlier, the city is heading for a

runoff election

.

Thomas Westphal (SPD) stabilizes with around 36 percent of the vote, while Andreas Hollstein continues to secure second place with around 26 percent.

On the way to the final result, there are still many votes to be counted in Dortmund - surprises cannot be ruled out.

Update from September 13, 7.42 p.m.:

In Dortmund, the

OB election is

moving towards the

runoff

election.

Now that 460 out of 671 electoral districts have been counted, there is hardly a scenario that would bring a candidate victory today.

However, the gaps have become a bit clearer.

Thomas Westphal (SPD) is 36.1 percent, while Andreas Hollstein (CDU) with 27.1 percent was able to stand out from the Green candidate Daniela Schneckenburger (21.3 percent).

Perhaps the two applicants for the

second ballot

have

already been

found.

After the

polling stations have closed

, the wait for the first results of the local elections in Dortmund remains.

Interim results from Dortmund - concrete figures even without extrapolation

Update from September 13, 5.43 p.m.:

In the local elections, the numbers look a little different than in other elections.

There is no real extrapolation.

Instead, the partial results of the already counted polling stations are published in the cities, which are not necessarily meaningful for the entire city.

A solid intermediate result can nevertheless be read off without giving a representative overview in the form of an extrapolation.

Update from September 13, 4:47 p.m.:

Dortmund is one of the cities participating in an additional election.

The Ruhr Parliament is also elected here, but of course local elections in the city have priority in the counting.

All the results of the local elections in Dortmund - the first numbers can be there quickly

Update from September 13th, 2.30 p.m.:

Immediately after the polling stations have closed, the

counting of the votes for the election result in Dortmund can

begin.

Although there is

no precise forecast for

local elections

at 6 p.m.

, it often does not take long before the first concrete figures are known.

As soon as individual electoral districts have counted the votes of the OB election, there should also be a first concrete picture of the mood in Dortmund.

Local elections in NRW: In Dortmund there are three elections today

Dortmund - In the

2020 local elections in North Rhine-Westphalia

,

Dortmund

are faced with several decisions.

All citizens entitled to vote vote with

three ballot papers

on Dortmund's city policy.

Not only the

mayor

is newly elected, but also the

city ​​council

and the

district

councils

.

While the city council decides on matters relating to all of Dortmund, the twelve district representatives are each responsible for the smallest urban areas, the

city ​​districts

.

In

Dortmund,

voters will

have a fourth election because they also have to

vote

on the parties in the

Ruhr Parliament

- an institution that can only be found in the

Ruhr area

.

But caution is advised.

The voter fills out several ballot papers for the

local elections

in Dortmund, but he has to be careful about one thing:

Only one cross may be made per sheet

- otherwise his vote is lost and the ballot paper is invalid.

You will receive an overview of the events in the state on election day with our news ticker for the runoff elections of the NRW local elections.

Dortmund: How will the 2020 local elections work?

The local elections in Dortmund will take place on September

13th

.

Punctually at 6 p.m.

the polling stations

also close in the other large cities of Wuppertal, Bochum, Duisburg, Essen, Düsseldorf, Cologne and throughout

North Rhine-Westphalia

- this is when the most important part of the work begins for the election workers: The counting of the votes - this also includes the submitted by postal vote.

Only when all votes from all

electoral districts have been

recorded will the results of the election of the

city ​​council

and the individual

district representatives be

certain

after the first ballot - often on the same evening

.

However, there could be delays this year due to the coronavirus protection measures.

As a rule, all results are known no later than the Monday after the election.

Local elections in Dortmund: The results of the mayor election come first

First, the

mayor election

is evaluated

, which is why the

result of

the

mayor

election should

be known quickly -

but it does not lose any of

its

tension

.

Because when

it comes to

electing the mayor

, it always depends entirely on: Only if one of the candidates can win at least 50 percent of the valid votes for himself is it enough for him.

If none of the candidates get the necessary votes, there will

be a runoff

on

September 27th

, which will ultimately decide who will be allowed to hold office in the future.

Our partner portal ruhr24.de * also reports on the election results.

If one believes a representative survey on the

2020 local elections in North Rhine-Westphalia

, it remains to be doubted that the next

Lord Mayor

this year will be determined after the first ballot.

Accordingly, it would even be very likely that the OB election in

Dortmund will go

into the second round.

According to the survey, the OB candidates of the SPD and CDU would then

deliver

a

runoff election

.

For the

SPD

,

Thomas Westphal competes

in the election of the mayor in Dortmund, for the CDU,

Dr.

Andreas Hollstein.

This year's local elections definitely mean a cut in local politics in Dortmund.

Change of power in Dortmund: a new mayor after eleven years

After eleven years, the incumbent Lord Mayor

Ullrich Sierau (SPD)

leaves

office without

running

again.

Sierau

was first elected in 2009.

Even when the city council decided to repeat this election, he was re-elected on May 9, 2010.

In the

2014

OB election

, none of the candidates initially received more than half of the valid votes, so that a

run-off election

took place, which Sierau was able to win again.

The 

SPD received

 38.2% of the vote, the 

CDU

 27.2% and the 

Greens

 15.4%.

Die Linke

landed well behind 

 at 6.8%.

This time

Andreas Hollstein

would like to

get the office of

Lord Mayor

for the

CDU

.

He has been the mayor of

Altena

since 1999

.

The CDU politician became known nationwide through a tragic incident: in 2017 he was the victim of a politically motivated

knife attack

.

Hollstein's attacker rejected his liberal stance on

refugee policy

.

Thomas Westphal,

on the other hand, would like to succeed his party colleague Sierau as Lord Mayor.

Since 2013 he has been head of economic development in Dortmund.

Which party will rule in Dortmund soon remains exciting.
