Andrea Lübcke Elected Co-Leader of Brandenburg's Green Party

Lübcke aims to revitalize the Greens after their 2024 exit from the state parliament, focusing on climate action, social justice, and rural outreach.

  • Andrea Lübcke, a regional council leader, won 60.5% of delegate votes to become the new co-chair of Brandenburg's Green Party.
  • She defeated Linda Weiß, who secured 35.8% of the vote, and Judith Paeper, who received just under 3%.
  • Lübcke emphasized the need for a 'new start' for the party, advocating for stronger rural presence and increased focus on climate and social issues.
  • The leadership change follows the Greens' failure to secure seats in the 2024 Brandenburg state parliament elections.
  • Outgoing co-leaders Hanna Große Holtrup and Alexandra Pichl stepped aside to enable new leadership and direction for the party.
