The Left Party fought for entry into the state parliament in the state elections in Lower Saxony. In Hanover, she sends all kinds of celebrities from Berlin into the race – above all her veteran star Gregor Gysi.
Hanover. Judging by the audience on the Küchengartenplatz in Hanover-Linden, the Left Party does not have to worry about the state elections on October 9th. Apparently, at least as many people came to Linden on Thursday evening as there were to the Greens a few days earlier – and they look at poll numbers between 16 and 22 percent.
But Linden is not representative of Lower Saxony. In surveys, the links get a maximum of 4 percent, which would not be enough for entry into the state parliament. On Thursday evening in Linden, the party will send everything it has in terms of prominence into the running: the Lower Saxony state chairwoman Heidi Reichinnek from Osnabrück, who has quickly become a kind of shooting star of her parliamentary group in the current Bundestag, the Bundestag parliamentary group leader Amira Mohamed Ali from Oldenburg – and the veteran star of the left, Gregor Gysi.
