So the two accompanying teachers, Jessica Schumann and Eva Katharina Rink, didn’t get bored either. On the contrary\u2014the atmosphere at the junior election at Steinm\u00fchle was warm, cheerful, and lively. That’s what makes voting fun! <\/p>\n
However, the following students should also be mentioned:<\/p>\n
Ben Luis Peters, Jannis David Bastian, Fabian Gutmann, and Andreas Fabian W\u00f6hr also wanted to serve as junior election workers, and some of them\u2014including Ben Luis Peters\u2014had already demonstrated their commitment to democracy and their diverse skills during the previous junior elections in the fall of 2023, held in conjunction with the Hessian state legislative elections. Constantin Mensing also served as an election worker during the junior election for the state legislative election and left a very positive impression. <\/p>\n

A thank you for your hard work<\/strong><\/p>\n Eva Katharina Rink, the English and social studies teacher who was primarily responsible for organizing and conducting the junior elections, would like to take this opportunity to extend a heartfelt thank you to the people mentioned above. Without you, these junior elections would not have been possible\u2014you\u2019re the best! \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n The results of the junior elections at Steinm\u00fchle were also outstanding, especially when compared to the overall results of all participating schools in Germany. At Steinm\u00fchle, in fact, a clear victory for the democratic parties is emerging. Although the AfD also gained ground here (4.9 percent), it lags significantly behind the other parties. A nationwide trend is also evident at Steinm\u00fchle: The Greens are the losers of this election and have lost many votes compared to previous junior elections at Steinm\u00fchle (18.2 percent), but they are still the third-strongest party and thus well ahead of the FDP (10.5 percent). <\/p>\n The results for the CDU, which emerged as the leading party at Steinm\u00fchle, are also noteworthy (23.8 percent) and the SPD, which, with 19.2 percent, is clearly the second-strongest party and can certainly be described as the winner of the election, as it has made significant gains at Steinm\u00fchle compared to previous junior elections.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n To Promote Democracy<\/strong><\/p>\n The result for the Volt party is also noteworthy, as it is tied with the AfD (4.9 percent).<\/p>\n With 3.8 percent of the vote, Die Linke is considered the loser at Steinm\u00fchle, and Sahra Wagenknecht\u2019s party (BSW) also managed to secure only 3.1 percent of the vote. It thus trails Die Linke by a narrow margin. <\/p>\n Other parties received a total of 11.5 percent. The exact results can be found in the chart on the right. This result is typically high for our school. This year\u2019s junior elections were, of course, particularly exciting, as 16- and 17-year-olds were also allowed to vote for the first time in the \u201creal\u201d European elections. <\/p>\n The Junior Election (www.juniorwahl.de<\/a>) is viewed as a project to promote democracy, and given the enthusiasm shown by the Steinm\u00fchlen students on Election Day, one can definitely agree with this assessment.<\/p>\n The organizers of the junior elections at Steinm\u00fchle hope that the rest of the student body and faculty share this view, and that the enthusiasm and commitment to our wonderful and exciting democracy at our school will continue to grow in the years to come.<\/p>\n On June 6, the junior election for the European Parliament took place at the Steinm\u00fchle under bright sunshine. Subject teacher Eva Katharina Rink reports: It\u2019s no wonder that, with such beautiful election weather, voter turnout was a gratifying 83 percent. But we also have our hardworking election volunteers to thank for this, as well as […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":46436,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"give_campaign_id":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[85,93,107],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-46433","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-politics-business-responsibility","category-surveys-studies"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46433","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=46433"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46433\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":49520,"href":"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46433\/revisions\/49520"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/46436"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46433"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46433"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46433"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/06\/Gesamtergebnis-aller-in-Deutschland-an-der-Juniorwahl-teilnehmenden-Schulen-2024-scaled.png\")
