New faces on the KPÖ plus state board: Frauenpower in Salzburg

At the KPÖ Plus state conference on Saturday, the new state board was elected. The members of the party unanimously confirmed Kay-Michael Dankl and his deputy Natalie Hangöbl in their offices. Furthermore, the state manager Sarah Pansy and the financial officer Christian Eichinger were confirmed in their positions. A remarkable newcomer is Cornelia Plank, who was previously the club chairman in the Salzburg municipal council. In addition, the municipal councilor Roberta Jelinek, the spokeswoman for the young left, and Max Rigele, the party office manager, also belong to the new board. With this constellation, the board consists of four female members, which reflects a particularly young management structure compared to other parties in the state of Salzburg.

These elections are particularly important because they represent the result of a long and successful election process. Kay-Michael Dankl commented on the recent successes of the party and emphasized that the new board represented a broader line-up. This reflects the growth of the past year and a half.

The KPÖ Plus won remarkable about 12 percent of the vote in the 2023 state election, which secured the party four mandates in the state parliament. In the city of Salzburg, they could even increase their seats from one to ten mandates and also establish themselves in other communities such as Hallein and Wals-Siezenheim. Dankl continued that the trust placed was an obligation to campaign for social issues and affordable living space. The goal is to involve even more volunteers and to further promote the growth of the party.

The choice of the new board could be seen as a turning point for the KPÖ Plus, since the party is in a position in which it can build on its success. The members are optimistic and are ready to actively address the upcoming challenges. The tension and anticipation for the new projects are great, and the party sees time as favorable for targeted development.
