The federal election campaign is in full swing.
Candidates are smiling from countless posters on almost every street.
However, these are more and more victims of vandalism.
Germering - In Germering, strangers have cut the cable ties that were used to hang the posters throughout the city in the past few days.
The election campaigns were lying around on the floor.
As SPD local chief Helmut Lindauer reports, he was made aware of this by the city.
The building yard discovered the posters, some of which were lying on the street, and placed them in such a way that they no longer endanger the traffic, explains manager Monika Schindler.
They were posters from different parties.
The CSU also complains of vandalism on the election posters.
The Bundestag member Katrin Staffler (CSU) sees the damage as a dangerous trend.
“Vandalism is not a trivial offense.
The election campaign is a political competition and, as with any competition, we need fairness and rules that are observed. "
Staffler is also concerned with the volunteer supporters.
“I am very fortunate that many volunteers have supported me in their free time and on weekends with the billposting.
The vandalism is directed not only against the candidates, but also against the numerous volunteers in politics. "
Already before the last federal election there was damage to election posters.
Suspending or damaging it can result in criminal proceedings for damage to property or theft.
