Never before in Neverin: Will Karoline Koreng become the youngest mayor?

Things are getting exciting in the tranquil community of Neverin near Neubrandenburg: the election of a new mayor is scheduled for October 26, 2025. The reason for the new election is the early departure of the previous mayor Nico Klose, who is stepping down on November 12th to take up his new role as mayor of Neubrandenburg. This not only opens a new chapter for Neverin, but it also provides a small ray of hope for the debate about female leadership in the region.

The first official candidate for the office is Deputy Mayor Karoline Koreng, who is running for the “Citizens for Neverin” voter group. The Neverin native has already proven herself as a health and nursing nurse in Neubrandenburg and now sits on the cultural committee of the local council. Fortunately, with her possible election victory she could become the youngest mayor in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, because the current youngest in his guild, Julian Klinkenberg, is already 28 years old, while Koreng has not even reached this average age.

Competition on equal terms

But Karoline Koreng is not the only applicant. Two men are also running as individual candidates, whose names will be announced by an election committee by the end of August. The citizens can expect an exciting race, because the new boss of the community is the 14th head to be elected since 1945. The only woman to have held this office so far is Hannelore Scharff, who was mayor from 1975 to 1990.

Eligibility and Requirements

An important point to consider in this election is voting eligibility. According to the state electoral regulations, all Germans and Union citizens who are at least 16 years old and have recently lived in Neverin are allowed to take part. However, only those who are at least 18 years old on election day and have lived in the electoral area for three months are eligible to vote. Here it becomes clear how carefully the guidelines for a fair election are designed.

With Karoline Koreng at the helm, Neverin could not only experience a fresh, young perspective, but also take an important step towards equality between men and women in leadership positions. The commitment of the new candidate, who has already made a name for herself as a knowledgeable citizen in local politics, is making people sit up and take notice and could prompt voters to take a new interim path.

The election promises not only a decision about the future head of the community, but also about the direction in which Neverin wants to develop. It remains to be seen how the electorate will react between now and October 26th, but what is certain is that the signs mean an exciting election.
