Merz to Attend CSU Party Conference - Söder Aims for Re-election - Söder faces re-election as CSU conference sets party’s future course
The CSU party conference in December will feature two key events. Markus Söder, the current chairman, will seek re-election on December 12. The following day, Chancellor Friedrich Merz will deliver a closing speech to delegates.
Söder will stand for another term as CSU leader at the upcoming conference. His previous re-election in 2023 saw him win 96.6 percent of the vote. This year, he aims to secure a similarly strong result.
The election will take place on December 12, with delegates casting their ballots. While no official forecasts exist, Söder’s leadership and political stance remain central topics within the party.
On December 13, Chancellor Friedrich Merz will address the conference. His speech is scheduled for the final day of the gathering, following Söder’s re-election.
The conference will determine Söder’s future as CSU chairman. His re-election result will be announced before Merz’s address the next day. The event marks a significant moment for the party’s direction under its current leadership.
