Werder Members Elect Weiß, Ohlmeyer, Reuter and Deutz to Supervisory Board as Hoppe Is Rejected

The result awaits formal confirmation at the January assembly following a first-ever digital ballot with low turnout.

Overview

  • Members chose four candidates in a digital vote after presentations at Bremen’s Energieleitzentrale, with 311 present and 303 ballots cast.
  • Harm Ohlmeyer and Florian Weiß were returned to the board, joined by newcomers Christina Reuter and Julian Deutz.
  • Replacement candidates were designated as Daniela Schmidt and Lene Knoll.
  • Wahlausschuss chief Manfred Jacobi defended the shortlist, stating there was no exclusion list and emphasizing oversight skills over football backgrounds.
  • Fan groups had criticized the nominations and questioned potential conflicts involving investor-affiliated Ohlmeyer, who addressed those concerns before the vote.
