In the early evening, the situation in Darmstadt is confusing because not even half of the votes have been counted in both constituencies at this point. However, it won’t be that easy for the CDU, which triumphed nationwide on Sunday, to end up in first place in the young science city. At least in the city, things aren’t going so badly for red and green candidates.
This time, 13 candidates ran in the Darmstadt I constituency. in which five years ago Hildegard Förster-Heldmann (The Greens) was able to secure the direct mandate with 31.3 percent at the time; At that time, it was still clearly ahead of its competitors from the SPD and CDU. On Sunday, however, the 65-year-old member of the state parliament had to experience that she had two tough competitors in the agricultural master Hartwig Jourdan (CDU and Anne Marquardt (SPD). At around 8 p.m. the race was over – with a slight advantage for the state parliament candidate Förster-Heldmann still completely open. All other competitors for the direct mandate had no chance.
