Local election in Wuppertal: is a CDU or SPD candidate ahead of the results?

Wuppertal -

Wuppertal

is best known for its

suspension railway

.

In the election campaign for the

2020 local elections,

the city's figurehead is again an issue.

But initially all

Wuppertal residents

only have one question: Who can become

mayor

and govern the city

with the results of the local elections

?

A

social democrat

or a

CDU man

?

The decision was already visibly difficult in 2015 -

a

runoff election

decided

the post of

Lord Mayor

.

Andreas Mucke (SPD)

won with a good 60 percent of the votes and has been the incumbent since then.

Mucke was

able to

oust

the then Lord Mayor

Peter Jung (CDU)

from the throne, but can he

defend him

now in

2020

?

The most important events on election Sunday can be found on

merkur.de

in our live ticker for the local elections in NRW.

Local election in Wuppertal: CDU supports Green candidate

Already in the middle of his current term of office, the native of Wuppertal

Mucke declared

that he would run

again

in the next election for

mayor

.

Uwe Schneidewind (The Greens) is

now

challenging the incumbent

SPD man

- as well as five other

candidates

.

The

CDU

is

not nominating a candidate

in

Wuppertal

in this year's

local elections

, but it does support

Schneidewind

.

This means that a

green-black alliance will

strengthen him in the election for mayor.

Schneidewind knows about his chances of a strong local election result in Wuppertal and, as he

shows

on

Instagram

, leads the election campaign until the end:

It was a lot of fun again! 😃👍 It is impressive how many of the Wuppertal residents mentioned have already voted by letter

Result of the local elections in Wuppertal determined by several ballot papers

The

2020 local elections will

take place in

NRW

on September

13th

.

Votes are also held in the other major cities - we will keep you up to date on this in the general overview of results for the NRW election.

On

this day, the people of

Wuppertal

have to

put their crosses

on several

ballot papers

: All citizens who are entitled to vote - this year

young people

aged 16

and over are also

allowed to vote in

NRW

for the first time

- not only elect the

mayor

, but also the

city ​​council

and the ten

district

councils.

When filling out the three

ballot papers

in Wuppertal, caution is advised:

the voter may only put one cross on each sheet

- otherwise his vote is worthless.

In the local elections in 2020, right-wing extremist supporters of Erdogan also pushed into the city councils in several cities.

In the run-up to the

NRW election

, there was confusion about the mask requirement - also by Prime Minister Armin Laschet (CDU).

Local elections in North Rhine-Westphalia: When are the election results in Wuppertal?

All over

NRW

,

the polling stations will

close on September

13th

at 6 p.m.

The

election workers

then start counting the

votes

that were

cast

on site and by postal vote.

Only when all votes from all

electoral districts have been

recorded can the

election results be

announced.

Usually this is still

the case

on

election day

itself.

The electoral officers in North Rhine-Westphalia, however, ask in advance

to apologize for

delays in the announcement of the

results

- due to the

coronavirus pandemic

and the prescribed

safety and hygiene measures

, there could be obstacles in the usual process.

The results of the

local elections will

be available by Monday at the latest

firmly.

However, one of the three election results could have to

wait a little longer

in

Wuppertal

: If none of the

mayor candidates

achieve

at least 50 percent of the votes, the two electors with the most votes have to

go

to the

runoff

on

September 27th

.

After the

2015 local elections,

Jung

completely said

goodbye to

politics after he had suffered the defeat - does

Wuppertal's

incumbent

SPD Mayor Mucke

now

face

the same fate?

If you believe a current survey by the WDR,

2020

could well be tight

for him

.

The

WDR

polled

around 1000 eligible voters in

Wuppertal

by

telephone

.

Of course, the respondents' propensity to vote indicated in the survey does not necessarily indicate their actual voting behavior, but it does indicate a

trend

.

The

SPD

and

CDU

parliamentary groups

are currently

equally strong

in the

Wuppertal city council

, each with 19 seats, with the

Greens represented

with 11 seats.

Since the

CDU

supports

the

Green

candidate,

Schneidewind

, it could be a close match on election Sunday.

On

Instagram

Mucke therefore is probably his constituents that he day and night in the

campaign

is:

Results of the local elections beyond Wuppertal

You will also find

the continuously updated election results

for other major cities on

merkur.de

from election evening.

Here is a selection of the cities:

  • Local election results from Cologne

  • Local election results from Düsseldorf

  • Local election results from Dortmund

  • Local election results from Essen

  • Local election results from Duisburg

  • Local election results from Bochum

  • Local election results from Bielefeld

  • Local election results from Bonn

  • Local election results from Münster

Local election in Wuppertal: Will the result for the OB election be close?

According to the WDR survey, the current incumbent of the

SPD

would

“only” achieve 42 percent of the vote in an election at this point in time.

That would put him just behind

Schneidewind

, the joint candidate of the

CDU

and the

Greens

, and his 44 percent share of the

vote

.

All other candidates would have a total of 14 percent,

Bernhard Sander

from the

Left

would achieve five percent.

So it will remain exciting in

Wuppertal

until the end

, because a head-to-head race between

Mucke

and

Schneidewind is still

emerging.

For many people in

Wuppertal,

traffic in the city

is

an important issue that the future

mayor will

have to continue to deal with

.

In addition, the well-known

Wuppertal

suspension railway is

a major campaign topic, because the city's landmark and “local transport backbone” is currently more or less still.

The interest group Schwebebahn-Museum Wuppertal has long been fighting for a

museum

for the high cable car.
