A new district administrator is sought in the Meißen district. About 200,000 residents were summoned on Sunday to cast their vote. The early election is necessary because the former head of the district office, Arndt Steinbach, has resigned from his position to face new professional challenges. The CDU politician is the new managing director of municipal compensation in Berlin. This is insurance for municipalities. In early September, First Councilor Janet Putz took over official business until a new district administrator was elected.

Two men and one woman are running for district elections. According to the Saxon Local Elections Act, the person who receives more than half of the valid votes on the first ballot is elected. If no candidate can do this, a second vote will be held. In the case of the district council election in the Meißen district, it is scheduled on 8 November.
