The Greens also sent an experienced candidate into the race with Karl Bär. Bär, who landed in second place with 15.5 percent of the vote in 2021, intends to have the upcoming nomination meeting set up again on November 12th. This meeting will be decisive to confirm his candidacy.

for the SPD, Raffael Joos was chosen as a first voting candidate. The 31-year-old from Wolfratshausen has been active in the party for a long time and currently leads the Jusos Oberland.

In the last federal election, the FDP had only achieved 8.7 percent with Béatrice Vesterling.

The AfD, on the other hand, failed to set up its own candidate in the last election campaign, but will start a nomination process for the upcoming election. Thomas Widmann, the chairman of the Miesbach district association, has announced that a candidate will be announced in the near future.
