Remo Ankli (FDP) and Brigit Wyss (Greens) are leading so far. Will the third previous one, Susanne Schaffner (SP), also do it?
- Two of the previous three government members, Director of Education Remo Ankli (FDP) and Director of Economics Brigit Wyss (Greens), are clearly ahead. He should probably be eligible for re-election on the first ballot.
- The third previous member of the government, Susanne Schaffner (SP), is just above the absolute majority. Right behind her is the new candidate Sandra Kolly (CVP), by an absolute majority.
- With a gap with the other four candidates, Peter Hodel (FDP) and Thomas A. Müller (CVP) are also in a melee race.
- After more than 90 of the 107 counties counted, Richard Aschberger (SVP) has retired. He is confident and is waiting for the results of his office, he says.
In the Solothurn governing council elections, the fight for the two vacant CVP seats promises tension. Government councilors Roland Fürst and Roland Heim are no longer running.

These people are running for the Solothurn governing council
But the almost eternal rival in the bourgeois camp is the SVP, which has never had a government adviser in the canton of Solothurn. So far, the party has made five unsuccessful attempts to win a seat. This time cantonal councilor Richard Aschberger was supposed to help the party make a breakthrough.
However, after 84 of the 107 counties counted, it ranks last. He himself is still confident, he says in an interview with SRF. His office has yet to be counted, and neither have big cities like Grenchen, Aschberger says.

Three of the five members of Solothurn’s governing council are up for re-election. While the two women on the left, Susanne Schaffner (SP) and Brigit Wyss (Greens), have been in office for four years, Remo Ankli (FDP) has been a member of the executive since 2013. The trio is very likely to win. reelection. A possible second vote will take place on April 25.
