Almost every week the Bundestag sits, the AfD makes a new attempt to get a vice-presidential position there. She fails just as regularly – now again.
The AfD also failed in its attempt to enter the parliamentary control committee responsible for the secret services. Your candidate Gereon Bollmann received 68 yes and 578 no votes with 12 abstentions. However, CDU domestic politician Marc Henrichmann was elected as a member of the control committee – with 521 yes and 92 no votes and 47 abstentions.
