Kassel in election fever: posters, protests and a big election campaign!

The Bundestag election campaign left visible traces in Kassel. Election posters shape the cityscape and can be found on almost every street corner. Some lanterns seem to be overloaded by the multitude of posters that hang parties such as the AfD, SPD, Greens, Left and CDU. This reports hna The AfD's posters, which are strategically attached to the top, are particularly striking to avoid vandalism. In contrast, the posters of the left hang more often below, which may be a symbolic gesture. Despite the intensive presence of Sahra Wagenknecht, the left party's posters are remarkable because your party does not have its own direct candidate. The diversity of the parties is creative in Kassel.
