Direct mandate
These prominent names newly move into the Bundestag
Among the politicians who have made it into parliament in the Bundestag election are career changers, candidates with famous parents – and even a minister.
After the election evening, the successful candidates of the parties have planning security for the next four years. There are also some known faces and names among the politicians who newly move into parliament. In some people interested in politics, even those interested in politics should not have been known that they have not been sitting in the Bundestag.
In our We report on the latest news and developments every day.
Defense Minister Boris Pistorius (SPD), for example, is one of the most prominent faces in his party and has in the meantime even acted as a new candidate for Chancellor. But only now does the cabinet member receive a regular Bundestag mandate. It is certain that Pistorius will play an important role in the reorganization of the SPD.
The two party leaders of the left were not yet represented in Berlin. Jan van Aken was sitting in the Bundestag and is now returning after a long abstinence. His co-boss Ines Schwerdtner is new. Just like career changers Hendrik Streeck (CDU), who changes from virology to politics. In the photo gallery you can also see which children of famous parents in the Bundestag are in their footsteps.
For some celebrities, however, the dream of moving into the Bundestag also smashed. It was not enough for Chancellor Minister Wolfgang Schmidt (SPD) in Hamburg. Former Constitutional Protection President Thomas Haldenwang (CDU) has also lost the fight for the direct mandate in Wuppertal. Hubert Aiwanger, party leader of the Free Voters and Bavarian Economic Minister, has to stay in the south, he failed in his constituency Rottal-Inn.
