Erfurt (dpa / th) - The criticism as a result of the election of your country chief as prime minister in 2020 has not had a major impact on the number of members of the FDP.

In total, the FDP had about 1232 members at the end of 2020, said a spokesman for the party in a survey by the German press agency.

At the beginning of the year 1287 men and women were members of the Thuringian Liberals.

The party was heavily criticized nationwide last year.

Your state chairman Thomas Kemmerich was elected Prime Minister in February 2020 with the votes of the AfD.

A short time later he gave up the office again.

The fact that he defended the election later in the year ultimately led the federal party to break with him.

The left, the SPD, the Greens and the CDU also had relatively stable membership figures last year.
