Komunální volby a volby do Senátu 2022 v CR
Hodnocení kommunálních voleb vv ČR konkrétně Ústeckém kraji na území EEL
Local elections were held in the Czech Republic on September 23 and 24, 2022. The turnout in the Ústí nad Labem region was 40.60%. Voter turnout in local elections has traditionally been relatively low. In the districts of the Elbe/Labe Euroregion (Litoměřice, Děčín, Ústí nad Labem, Teplice), the highest turnout was recorded in the Litoměřice district (48.21%) and the lowest in Ústí nad Labem (38.39%).
There are more than 6,250 municipalities in the Czech Republic, half of which have fewer than 500 inhabitants. Typical are large differences between larger towns (county and county towns) and smaller "rural settlements".
In smaller cities and towns, local associations of independent candidates usually won. In the larger county or district towns, parties with a national presence have been successful.
As far as general trends are concerned, it should be noted that the ANO 2011 movement in the big cities of the Ústí nad Labem region became even stronger. The Freedom and Direct Democracy party (SPD), which in many places is making its debut on municipal councils, is also among the victors.
Negotiations are currently underway to form coalitions in individual municipalities and cities. Due to legal deadlines, the first meetings of the new councils, in which new mayors and deputy mayors are elected, will take place in most municipalities within 25 days of the election.
At the same time, senate elections were held for a third of the country's senate. In the Ústí district, two candidates made it to the second round of the Senate elections that will be held on September 30 and October 1: Petr Nedvědický (Mayor of Ústí) for ANO 2011 and Martin Krsek (historian from Ústí) for SEN 21.
Detailed results of local elections can be found on the volby.cz website (only in Czech).

On the 7th/8th A specialist conference on dealing with fake news in the Czech Republic, Poland and Germany will take place in Dresden on October 10.
From 07.10.-08.10.2022 the trinational conference Under Pressure on the topics of right-wing populism, conspiracy myths and fake news will take place at the Goethe-Institut Dresden. The following questions will be discussed: What can countries learn from each other when it comes to civil society support for refugees? And how can democratic actors work together across borders?
In the Czech Republic, Poland and (East) Germany there are numerous parallel developments with regard to dealing with right-wing populism, conspiracy ideologies and fake news. The political public in these countries is highly polarized. The influence of anti-democratic attitudes is growing, especially in rural areas. In the context of the disputes surrounding the corona pandemic or the conflict in Ukraine, we are seeing a significant increase in conspiracy stories and targeted disinformation.
New alliances have emerged between organized right-wing extremism, right-wing populism and supporters of conspiracy ideas. At the same time, committed people support the refugees from Ukraine who arrive in Poland, the Czech Republic and Germany. All of these developments mean that democratic civil societies are moving into the focus of new undemocratic alliances and are coming under increasing pressure.
The specialist conference Under Pressure is a joint event by: Kulturbüro Sachsen eV , Bundesverband Mobileberatung eV and the Center for International Cultural Education at the Goethe-Institut Dresden in cooperation with the Friedrich-Ebert Foundation and the Foundation against Racism . Look forward to lectures, exchange, networking opportunities and discussions with numerous actors and experts, including Prof. Dr. Jens Christian Wagner, Dr. Olga Richterová and Bartosz Jozefiak.
The organizers would like to draw attention to another program highlight. Katharina Nocun will be released on Friday, October 7th, 2022 from her book “True Facts. What really helps against conspiracy narratives".
