Vorgezogene Bundestagswahl: Ist eine schnellere Neuwahl überhaupt machbar?

Sowohl Wahlkreiskandidaten als auch Landeslisten müssen von Parteiversammlungen demokratisch bestimmt werden. Und das braucht gewisse Zeit für die Vorbereitung.

Im Bundeswahlgesetz steht: Wahlvorschläge für die Wahlkreise und Landeslisten der Parteien sind spätestens am 69. Tag vor der Wahl schriftlich einzureichen. Im Anschluss muss der Bundeswahlausschuss über die Zulassung der Wahlvorschläge entscheiden.

Wahl für neue Berliner SPD-Parteispitze: Landeschef Saleh ist aus dem Rennen

Saleh hat die Politik der SPD in den vergangenen Jahren maßgeblich gestaltet und die Partei auch in das schwarz-rote Bündnis geführt.

Die SPD-Mitglieder hätten gegen eine „Weiter so“ entschieden, kommentierte Hikel das Ergebnis am Samstag. Das Ergebnis sei ein Einschnitt und bringe die Partei in eine „neue Ära der Sozialdemokratie“. Ähnlich äußerte sich seine Co-Bewerberin Böcker-Giannini, die an die Einigkeit der Partei appellierte.

55 Things You Need to Know About Nicole Shanahan

Raised on welfare in a single-parent household in Oakland, California, the daughter of a Chinese immigrant, Shanahan went from a successful career as a patent lawyer and entrepreneur to marrying into uber-wealth after meeting Google co-founder Sergey Brin at a yoga festival. The two divorced in 2022, amid reports that she had had an affair with Brin’s friend and fellow tech titan, Elon Musk. (Shanahan and Musk deny the allegations.)

Like so many others who have amassed a fortune from the tech sector, Shanahan has become a philanthropic force but also a political player.

„Durch Neuwahlen würde nach meiner persönlichen Einschätzung vor allem viel Zeit ins Land gehen durch eine Hängepartie, Wahlkampf und wachsende Unsicherheiten“, sagte der Präsident der Deutschen Industrie- und Handelskammer (DIHK), Peter Adrian, der Nachrichtenagentur Reuters.

Protect RFK Jr. – Protect Democracy: Urge President Biden to Provide RFK Jr. Secret Service

For democracy to function, the public must know that elections, and not violence, will decide who takes public office. That is why the United States has granted Secret Service protection to all major Presidential candidates.

Last Wednesday, for the second time this election season, an intruder entered Robert F. Kennedy Jr.‘s home in Los Angeles. He had written hundreds of emails to the campaign, which were included in its application for Secret Service protection, one of which made mention of a „bullet in [Mr. Kennedy‘s] brain.“ A month earlier, a man had showed up to one of Mr. Kennedy‘s campaign events carrying loaded weapons and posing as a U.S. Marshal.

In both cases, the individuals were apprehended by Mr. Kennedy‘s private security detail and turned over to the police. But the incidents demonstrate the necessity for Secret Service protection for Mr. Kennedy. Withholding protection puts him and members of the public who attend campaign events at risk. Furthermore, it would be incredibly destabilizing for our nation if another Kennedy came to harm in the course of Presidential politics.

You can‘t have a functioning democracy when candidates aren‘t safe. Whether or not you support my campaign, please sign this petition urging the White House to grant me Secret Service protection. #Kennedy24

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Hints Strongly at Third-Party Presidential Bid

(Sept. 29, 2023)

Mr. Kennedy, in a video released by his campaign, teased a “major announcement” in Philadelphia on Oct. 9, promising to speak about “a sea change in American politics” and dropping clues that he would be continuing his presidential campaign outside the Democratic Party.

“How are we going to win against the established Washington interests?” Mr. Kennedy says in the video. “It’s not through playing the game by the corrupt rules that the corrupt powers and the vested interests have rigged to keep us all in their thrall. Instead, we’re going to have to rewrite the assumptions and change the habits of American politics.”

All the times Trump’s trials conflict with the 2024 election campaign

Scheduling this trial is particularly complicated since Trump is a defendant in three other criminal cases. In New York — where Trump faces state charges related to repayment of hush money given to an adult-film star during the 2016 presidential campaign — a judge also set the trial date for March 2024.

Trump’s federal trial in Florida is set to begin in May 2024.

That means that Trump could become the presumptive GOP nominee in the 2024 presidential election at the same time as his lawyers are in court for his trial for seeking to steal the last election. Neither political scientists nor legal scholars have really anticipated such a scenario, so no technical term exists to describe it, but I can suggest one: a huge mess.

Fear and disbelief in Arab-Israeli town after shocking quadruple murder

Four men were shot at point-blank range. Among them was Ghazi Sa’ab, a well-known member of the community, a former border police officer, and a candidate for the head of the local council.

Police say the quadruple murder was planned in advance, carried out only two hours after Sa’ab launched his municipal campaign. The four victims were standing in an olive grove near one of the entrances to the town when a squad of assassins drove up to them, exited the car, and shot them.

Guatemala kurz vor der Stichwahl zur Präsidentschaft

(17.08.2023)

Im Mittelpunkt der Proteste standen die fortgesetzten Angriffe der Staatsanwaltschaft auf die sozialdemokratische Partei Movimiento Semilla, die überraschend bei den Wahlen am 25. Juni den zweiten Platz erreicht hatte. Sie tritt mit ihrem Kandidaten Bernardo Arévalo zur Stichwahl für die Präsidentschaft am kommenden Sonntag gegen Sandra Torres von der Partei „Einheit der Nationalen Hoffnung“ (UNE) an.

Mitte Juli hatte die siebte Strafkammer in Guatemala-Stadt nach Ermittlungen der Sonderstaatsanwaltschaft angekündigt, die Partei Semilla wegen angeblicher Unregelmäßigkeiten bei den Mitgliederlisten auszuschließen. Zwar hob das Verfassungsgericht den Beschluss wenige Tage später auf, allerdings nur für den laufenden Wahlprozess. Eine Klage von Semilla wies das Verfassungsgericht zurück, so dass der Prozess der Suspendierung der Partei weiterhin offen ist.

One of the first to release a statement was former CIA spy and former Rep. Will Hurd of Texas, a long-shot for the nomination and a very vocal GOP Trump critic.

„Let me be crystal clear: Trump‘s presidential bid is driven by an attempt to stay out of prison and scam his supporters into footing his legal bills. Furthermore, his denial of the 2020 election results and actions on Jan. 6 show he‘s unfit for office,“ Hurd wrote.
