FDP Puts Forward Markus Deschler for Starnberg District Administrator Race

A formal nomination is expected in mid-November ahead of the March 8, 2026 election.

Overview

  • Local chairs Britta Hundesrügge and Paul Friedrich presented Deschler on Monday in Starnberg, with a confirmation vote planned around November 15.
  • He will challenge incumbent Stefan Frey of the CSU, with Green candidate Benjamin Barho already declared for the race.
  • Deschler proposes a long-term 50% ceiling on the district levy, warning that higher rates demotivate municipalities.
  • If federal special-fund money becomes available, he would prioritize building a new Fachoberschule in Starnberg and a Realschule in the western part of the county.
  • The platform emphasizes expanding commercial sites, including possible greenfield development, and organizers plan to place Deschler first on the FDP county council list.
