Karoline Koreng wants to become the first female mayor of Neverin!

A fresh breeze is blowing through the municipality of Neverin, because the first official candidate for the upcoming mayoral election has been determined: Karoline Koreng. The 30-year-old native of Neverin will run for the “Citizens for Neverin” voting group. The election is scheduled for October 26, 2024, and it will be exciting because change is imminent.

A new election is currently necessary because the current mayor, Nico Klose, will resign from office on November 12, 2025. Klose gives the reason that he does not want to pursue a dual role after being elected mayor of Neubrandenburg. A swearing-in ceremony will take place in Neubrandenburg on July 17, and the decision on the timing of his induction still depends on an objection to his election, which will be heard within July or October of the current year.

The path to the new mayoral election

The mayoral election on October 26, 2024 will determine the 14th head of the municipality of Neverin since 1945. The aim is to fill the place of the previous incumbent, Hannelore Scharff, who held the office from 1975 to 1990. Koreng has already proven in the local council, where she works as a member of the cultural committee, that she is passionate and committed to community politics.

Karoline Koreng, who works as a health and nursing nurse in Neubrandenburg, brings a breath of fresh air and a clear vision to the election campaign. Your motivation to run for mayor could have a decisive impact on community life in Neverin.

Who can vote?

The electorate has the opportunity to actively participate in this exciting process. All Germans who are at least 16 years old, as well as EU citizens residing in the electoral area, are eligible to vote. However, there are some requirements to be taken into account, such as the residency requirement, which states that those eligible to vote must have been registered in the municipality for at least 37 days. The eligibility itself is available to all Germans and Union citizens aged 18 and over.

In summary, Neverin is at a turning point. It remains to be seen whether Karoline Koreng can take the helm and revitalize the mayor's office. But one thing is certain: the political landscape in the community will definitely change as a result of the upcoming elections.
