Herisau mayor Kurt Geser has announced his resignation for personal reasons at the end of the year in office on May 31, 2021.
He underestimated the office and the conduct of office, said Geser at the media conference convened at short notice on Thursday morning, November 26, 2020. In addition, the lack of political experience, coupled with the lack of support from a party, was a heavy burden. After all, coping with the corona pandemic also takes a lot of energy and has brought the barrel to overflowing.
Kurt Geser ran for the election in March 2019 as a politically blank slate and won it in a competitive election against the incumbent mayor Renzo Andreani.
Succession
The first ballot is scheduled for April 11, 2021, and any second ballot for May 2.
