Germany's Saxony-Anhalt state parliament is electing its Speaker today. Tobias Lausch received 48 out of 82 votes as a candidate for the German Choice Party to become the Speaker of the State Assembly. This is also the first time that a candidate from this far-right party has been elected Speaker of the State-level Assembly. Four members of traditional political parties in the Sian State Assembly voted for Lausch. According to some analysts, the results of this vote show that the traditional German political party's “firewall” policy against the German Choice Party in Saxony has been broken.
