First election proposal for the mayoral election in Schwaan!

Schwaan, Deutschland - in Schwaan, Northern Germany, the mayoral election is just around the corner. On November 16, 2025, the citizens have to vote. If there is no clear result, a runoff election could even take place 14 days later. The first election proposal has already been received by the party Die Linke. The responsible election manager, Dirk Antelmann, has confirmed the application, but the name of the candidate remains under closure for the time being.

The question remains exciting: Who will present themselves to the voters? The election provider's email address gives an indication of the gender of the candidate, but still leaves many questions unanswered. In the last local election a year ago, eight candidates on the left competed, but no direct conclusions can be drawn about the upcoming mayoral election.

The current mayor and the dialing

Mathias Schauer, the reigning mayor and member of the independent voters Schwaan (UWS), is also interested in a re -election and can well imagine a third term. However, he has not yet submitted any documents. In order to be able to participate in the election, however, the candidates have to meet certain selection requirements: they must be German citizens, at least 18 years old, and must not have any debt. The deadline for submitting the election proposals ends on September 2, 2025 at 4 p.m. In Germany,
