From the Federal Palace to the Nativity Scene: Due to an unpleasant comparison of Jews, the Argovian Green Party politician Jonas Fricker resigned from the National Council last year. Since then, the 41-year-old Hausmann. As a successor to Frickers, Irene Kälin joined the parliament.

But Fricker's political withdrawal could only be short-lived. As reported by "Switzerland on weekends", the cantonal party wants to bring the Greens back to the Bundeshaus.

"He would bring us a lot of votes"

Fricker himself commented casually this week on a possible new candidacy. "This decision is still open," he tweeted. At the present time, we can no longer get away with the former National Council.

The Aargau Greens, however, confirm the demand for "Switzerland Sunday": Fricker was officially solicited for a candidacy. A first request was made two months ago, according to Canton President Daniel Hölzle. He will contact him again in the coming weeks. "Of course, as party president, I am interested in having strong and well-known names on our list of national councils." It was definitely "Fricker". "He is a Grüner through and through and we would bring a lot of votes."

This could be the election of Aargau Greens a fight election. For the successor of Frickers Bundeshaus, Kälin wants to compete in 2019, according to Hölzle. And even the former commander of the city of Baden and the National Council Geri Müller playing with a return of the federal government. (lha)
