The left in Bavaria is now led by a dual female leadership – the former SPD member of the state parliament, Adelheid Rupp, joins the previous state leader Kathrin Flach Gomez. The 64-year-old sat in the state parliament from 2003 to 2010, but later left her party. Now she wants to bring her new party there next year: for the first time in Bavaria over the five percent hurdle (in 2018 it was 3.2 percent).
