According to statements made to the “Redaktionsnetzwerk Deutschland” Huber argues that Nouripour’s plan represents an overreach of central control and an attack on the principles of federalism, asserting that Bavaria will continue to determine its own election schedule and legislative period
Nouripour, a Green party politician, recently suggested consolidating all state election dates to a single national date, extending the Bundestag’s legislative period to five years and coordinating these with local council elections He explained to “Bild” that this would reduce the constant campaigning often seen in German politics and create a more sustainable pace for political activity, effectively streamlining elections to just two dates nationally
