AfP in NRW to Elect New Leader Between Geisel and Hunko
The Alliance for Progress (AfP) in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) is set to elect a new leader at their party conference in Bochum on Sunday. The two candidates vying for the top spot are Thomas Geisel and Andrej Hunko. Geisel, a former Social Democrat, has called for internal party reforms, while Hunko advocates for a consistent peace policy.
Geisel's role in the party and his push for reforms have sparked some internal opposition within the AfP. Despite this, he positions himself as a realpolitiker, aiming to navigate the party through its challenges. Hunko, on the other hand, is expected to win the election in a landslide, with the state manager and the AfP youth already expressing their support. His election is anticipated to spare the party from internal debates. Notably, Sahra Wagenknecht's close circle is likely to continue acting as they wish under Hunko's leadership.
The AfP, a young party founded in 2020, focuses on progress, civil rights, and social justice. As they prepare for their election day, the party's future direction will be a key topic of discussion. The election results, expected to favor Hunko, will provide clarity on the party's path forward.
