Overview
- The repeat mayoral vote, held Sunday, June 14, returned Georg Klampfleuthner as mayor with 94 votes, or 78.3 percent of the counted ballots, according to provisional results.
- The rerun followed a March 8 vote in which incumbent Armin Krämmer received 47.7 percent but lost because more than half of voters wrote other names on ballots, a possibility under Bavarian rules when fewer than two official candidates stand.
- A planned March runoff against the most‑named other person, Michael Lanzinger, did not take place because Lanzinger declined to stand, and Krämmer then withdrew, forcing the full repeat election.
- Klampfleuthner had been elected to the municipal council in March, was chosen Second Mayor by the council, and won the Freie Wählergruppe nomination over Krämmer by 46 to 27 votes before contesting the June rerun.
- The result will create a council vacancy that will be filled by the next person on the March list, Elisabeth Barlage, and it highlights how Chiemsee’s tiny electorate of about 140 eligible voters and local institutions shape outcomes.
