Woidke remains SPD boss in Brandenburg: stability through clear attitude!

Bad Freienwalde, Deutschland - On June 21, 2025, the SPD state party conference took place in Cottbus, in which Dietmar Woidke was impressively confirmed in office. The experienced politician received 84.9 percent of the votes of the delegates and thus remains the SPD state chairman in Brandenburg. Woidke, who has been in office since 2013, has established itself as the longest reigning SPD state chairman in Germany. For comparison: In his last election two years ago, he received 90.8 percent of the vote, which shows that his support within the party has decreased slightly, but still remains strong.

A central topic of his speech was the current political situation and the continuing threat from right -wing extremists. Woidke decidedly advocated a ban on the AfD if the courts should classify the party as a right -wing extremist. He described this step as understandable and necessary, but warned of the lengthy and difficult process that could come to the SPD. He appealed to the responsibility that members of the SPD have to defend democracy and social values.

Another highlight of the event was the election of the new deputy state chairman. Ines Hübner was chosen with 70.16 percent and follows the former deputy chairman Katrin Lange, who resigned in May after an open dispute over her handling in the party.

In his speech, Woidke emphasized the need for stable and respectful discussions within the party, since inconsistent debates could only lead to difficult times for the SPD. His goals for the coming term are clear: stability and security for Brandenburg.

An urgent moment of the session was Woidke's conviction of a recently attacked attack on a democracy test in Bad Freienwalde, in which several people were injured. He emphasized the essential role of those who campaign for freedom and democracy and asked to protect these people. In the faces of his followers, the common will was reflected in raising against hatred and agitation.

As the n-tv reports, the SPD in Brandenburg remains in a strong position, even if the coming days and months will certainly have many exciting developments become.
