Bludenz city police officer Mario Leiter was proposed as the new party leader on Monday evening. The official presentation will take place on Tuesday, and the leader will be elected at a party conference in spring 2024.
Mario Leiter will lead the SPÖ Vorarlberg in the future. The party executive designated the Bludenz city police commander on Monday evening in Götzis (Feldkirch district) with 86.48 percent as the new state party chairman. The 57-year-old will follow interim boss Gabi Sprickler-Falschlunger, the party confirmed following the end of the meeting. The official presentation will take place on Tuesday, and the leader will be elected at a party conference in spring 2024.
Leiter should also lead the Vorarlberg comrades as a top candidate in the 2024 state elections. The comrades are hoping for more success from the new party leader, because in 2019 the SPÖ in Vorarlberg was once more at a low with 9.5 percent voter approval. The former deputy mayor of Bludenz, who has only gained experience in election campaigns in local politics, currently has no political function. (APA)
