Pat Kreß announces candidacy for Mettmann I: A new beginning for the SPD!

In a surprising step, Pat Kreß announced his candidacy for constituency 103/Mettmann I in the upcoming federal election at the SPD district party conference. "Chancellor Olaf Scholz's correct decision to no longer continue the coalition has changed a lot. For me too," explained Kreß, pointing to the far-reaching political changes that the decision brought with it.

But that's not all: Kreß has withdrawn his original candidacy for constituency 104 and wishes his party colleague Kerstin Griese every success in her plan to win the constituency directly again. “There is no need for another argument in the SPD now,” he emphasized, thereby sending a signal for unity within the party in this crucial phase.

Important turning points

Kreß's decision is not only a personal step, but could also have far-reaching consequences for the SPD in the region. By withdrawing his candidacy for constituency 104, Kreß shows that he is putting the party and its goals above personal ambitions. This could significantly influence the dynamics of the election campaign and put the focus on a united front as the SPD prepares for the challenges ahead.
