AfD Nominates Rausch to Lead Saxony-Anhalt Parliament

AfD has nominated Tobias Rausch, a long-serving state lawmaker, for president — essentially speaker — of Saxony-Anhalt's parliament. If elected, he would be the party's first state parliament speaker. The bid follows the AfD's first-place election finish ahead of the CDU and SPD, testing whether the largest group wins the top procedural job.
