Volker Knörr wins district election: breakdown and exciting results!
On Wednesday, Volker Knörr was officially confirmed as the winner of the district election in the Rhein-Palz district. This reports the Rheinpfalz . In the district election on March 16, Knörr received 57.6 percent of the vote from the CDU, while his competitor Bianca Staßen came from the SPD to 42.4 percent. Knörr will take up his office on November 19 after the incumbent district administrator Clemens Körner retired.
The choice was not without challenges. There was a breakdown in Alrip when around 660 postal voting documents had to be counted. These documents had been thrown in time, but were not brought to the head of the election. On Tuesday afternoon, the affected election boards in Altrip were called again to evaluate the documents. The subsequent count increased the turnout slightly to 40.0 percent after it had previously been 39.4 percent. It should be noted that the subsequent counting had no influence on the percentage of votes for the two candidates.

Both candidates, Knörr and Staßen are teachers and are also political. Knörr is currently the headmaster of the Adolf Diesterweg Realschule Plus in Ludwigshafen-Oggersheim and has prioritized integration as one of its most important topics. Stands congratulated Knörr after the choice and emphasized the need to modernize the administration.
technical breakdowns and their consequences
In addition to the challenges in postal voting, there was a transmission error in Großniedesheim. Here the voting results were exchanged. In fact, Bianca Staßen received 313 votes in this place, while Volker Knörr received only 158 votes. Despite these complications, the breakdowns did not influence the overall result of the choice, but they throw a light on the difficulties that can occur in the implementation of such elections.
