Overview

• AfD Bavaria removed the Augsburg-Land district board, citing arbitrary membership rejections, refusal to convene a requested members’ meeting, missed by-elections, and alleged misuse of donations.
• The Bavarian decision notes potential criminal relevance and requires final confirmation at the state party conference on October 25–26 in Greding.
• Named Augsburg-Land figures affected include Pascal Pfannes, Bundestag member Rainer Kraft, treasurer Stefan Katzenberger, and deputy treasurer Andreas Pemmann, after former chair Jörg Mikszas resigned earlier over internal concerns.
• AfD Hesse deposed the Offenbach-Stadt board for failing to cooperate with a bookkeeping audit, with suspected financial irregularities still under review as the audit proceeds.
• Delegate elections and a candidate assembly scheduled in Offenbach for October 4 did not occur, the state board is organizing a new district vote, and the party aims to meet the January 5, 2026 filing deadline for March 15 municipal elections, as local chair Christin Thüne denies the allegations and signals legal action.
