Overview

  • The new Dresden Stadt-/Kreisverband was founded over the weekend as BSW expands its structures across Saxony, following earlier chapters such as Erzgebirgskreis.
  • Andreas Uhlig was selected to lead the Dresden association and also sits on the party’s Saxony state executive.
  • State chair Sabine Zimmermann reported about 1,000 pending membership applications and said the party currently counts roughly 200 members in Saxony.
  • Local organizers in Dresden said they hope to gain authority to approve new members to accelerate intake.
  • BSW took 11.8% of second votes in the Saxony election but stayed out of the government as CDU and SPD formed a minority; in Dresden it has been on the city council after winning 7.2% in the local vote.
