Several candidate duos are applying for the SPD state chairmanship. The SPD in the capital is facing a decision about a possible change in leadership.

Jana Bertels and Kian Niroomand want to make the SPD Berlin “a left-wing big city party of the 21st century” This could lead to a candidacy against the current state leader Raed Saleh at the next state party conference on May 25th. The Berlin comrades see a main cause in the work of the traffic light coalition in the federal government.
