Regional voting - CDU emerges as the strongest party in the Stuttgart city council.
The Greens have faced not only a loss in the nation, but they've also been surpassed by the CDU as the most influential group in the city council. With 22.9% of the votes and the CDU securing 23.4%, it seems both parties will spearhead the strongest actions in the upcoming legislative body.
A contrast to five years ago shows the decline of the Greens by 3.4% and a gain of 4% for the CDU. As per the city's explanations, both the SPD and the CDU are anticipated to take 14 seats each. The SPD had 11.1% (11.6%) of the votes and currently hold seven seats, while the AfD scored 8.3% (6.1%) and five seats. The FDP received 7.4% (7.9%) and will also gain four seats.
The turnout for voters was recorded as being 57% (2019: 57.5%). The city will announce the official results of the city council election on Friday.
