In September 2019 he was unanimously elected as representative of Waldsiedlung (Altenstadt, Hesse),[1][2] which led to irritation in other parties at national level.[3][4] He was eventually removed by the town council after it reversed its decision in a controversial plebiscite of seven to one among the eight members on the council; he was the sole dissenter.
