Three candidates for district administrator elections in Oberspreewald-Lausitz have been chosen!
On January 11, 2026, the citizens of the Oberspreewald-Lausitz district will go to the polls to elect a new district administrator. The district election committee in Senftenberg has officially approved three candidates for the election radiolausitz.de reported. The selection includes Alexander Erbert from the CDU, Antje Ruhland-Führer from the AfD and Dr. Evgeni Kivman from the Animal Protection Party.
All three applications were submitted on time and accepted unanimously. The official announcement of the election proposals will take place in the district's official gazette at the beginning of next week, while 100,000 ballot papers have already been ordered and will be distributed to the individual cities and offices in the coming days, added radiocottbus.de.
Election preparations in full swing
Polling stations will open on election day, January 11, 2026, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. If no candidate achieves an absolute majority, a runoff election will be held on January 25th. The numbering of the ballot papers will be progressed quickly in the next few weeks to ensure a smooth process, as can be read in the district's current announcements.
If the candidates have already prepared, the election workers are also looking to the future: information on deadlines and processes for postal voting will be provided in a timely manner. This ensures that citizens can go to the polls well informed and prepared.
In the current political situation, every vote counts. It is therefore all the more important that as many eligible voters as possible take part in the process in order to send a strong signal. If that's not exciting, I don't know what is!
