Noosha Aubel wants to lead Potsdam: Consulting candidacy announced!

Potsdam, Deutschland - in Potsdam has an exciting time, because the search for a new mayor is in full swing. On September 21, 2025, it is elected, and now Noosha Aubel, a non -party candidate, has announced her ambitions for the office. The Hanoverian native, who previously lived and worked in North Rhine-Westphalia, wants to become the non-partisan mayor of Potsdam. She has worked as a deputy in the city since 2017 before taking on the role of the city councilor and head of department in Flensburg. "This is a great opportunity for Potsdam to bring someone to the top," believes Aubel, who now wants to convince voters with fresh ideas.

The political waves have moved vigorously in the past few weeks, because Mike Schubert from the SPD, who most recently held the Mayor's office, was voted out in a citizens' decision on May 25th. With a strong majority of 68.3%, the decision was surprising for many, and the deselection was officially effective on June 2. His successor, Burkhard Exner, the SPD's financial deputy, temporarily takes over the official business and is considered an experienced local politician. His responsibility lies in housekeeping and the investment strategy, which is crucial for Potsdam's future.

new voices in the political jungle

The SPD plans to choose its new candidate on July 5. In the past few days there have been talks about Severin Fischer, the Economic State Secretary from Berlin. It remains to be seen whether he actually goes into the race. Oliver Günther, President of the University of Potsdam, is also brought into play, but has not yet made a statement. Interestingly, Brandenburg's Minister of Economic Affairs Daniel Keller has excluded his candidacy due to the economic situation of the country, and other prominent SPD members have also rejected. The Greens, on the other hand, think about a non -partisan candidacy and also consider Aubel for this office.

The AfD also mixes: she nominated Chaled-Uwe Said, the chairman of the AfD city faction, as its candidate. It will be exciting to see whether these candidates can mobilize the electorate or whether confidence in the old SPD can be recovered.
