In the 2019 Karlsruhe local elections, ten parties or voter associations ran for elections - all of them made it into the Karlsruhe municipal council. The “free voters” won two of the 48 seats in the municipal council, and “FÜR Karlsruhe” one. At least three seats are required to form a parliamentary group in the municipal council. The formation of a parliamentary group and the bundling of seats creates the opportunity to give the will of the voters weight with more votes - in addition, parliamentary groups can submit motions to the city and are not limited to simply asking questions. "Freie Wahler" and "FÜR Karlsruhe" already formed a counting community together with the FDP in the past legislative period, which means that our city councilors can be represented in more committees. Now the decision was made to work together as a parliamentary group in favor of a policy of a healthy center and closeness to the people. With the introduction of the new municipal council on July 23, 2019, the parliamentary group has three councillors.
