Brandenburg's Green Party Leadership Resigns After Election Defeat

The entire leadership of the Brandenburg Greens steps down following a significant electoral loss, aiming for a new direction in opposition.

The Brandenburg Greens failed to pass the 5% threshold in the September 22 state election, securing only 4.1% of the vote.
The party's leadership, including co-chairs Alexandra Pichl and Hanna Große Holtrup, announced their resignation to facilitate a reorganization.
A new leadership election is scheduled for spring 2025, earlier than the originally planned autumn 2025, to address the party's future outside parliament.
Despite the electoral setback, the party remains committed to advocating for social justice and environmental issues as a vocal opposition.
The Greens plan to conduct six regional conferences and a party congress to analyze the election results and strategize their future actions.
