Krefeld In the freshly inflamed battle for the state chairmanship of the North Rhine-Westphalian SPD, the SPD parliamentary group leader Thomas Kutschaty received support from the re-elected Krefeld Mayor Frank Meyer (SPD).

“Personally, I think Thomas Kutschaty is extremely suitable to be the top candidate for the SPD. In this context, I find it logical to put party and parliamentary group chairmanship in one hand, ”said the politician of the“ Rheinische Post ”(Friday).

After the poor result in the local elections in the most populous state on Thursday, parliamentary group leader Kutschaty surprisingly announced that he wanted to run for the state chairmanship. He is running against the incumbent party leader Sebastian Hartmann, who had previously said that he was available for another term. A rivalry has long been smoldering between the party leader Kutschaty, who is influential in the NRW-SPD, and Hartmann.

Krefeld’s Lord Mayor Meyer emphasized that one could learn from the local elections in North Rhine-Westphalia that the SPD is strong where personnel issues have been clarified and one appears early and credibly. “That is why it is right if the top candidate for the state elections is clarified now.”

The new state chairman of the SPD state association with the largest number of members will be elected at the state party conference on November 14th in Münster.
