AfD ally wins mayoral election in east Germany
Briefly

Tim Lochner, who is not a member of the AfD but ran with the party's backing, in effect as its representative, secured 38.5% of the vote in the second round of a three-way runoff in the Saxon town of Pirna, near Dresden and close to the Czech border.
The party's first mayoral post was won in August in the municipality of Raguhn-Jessnitz, in Saxony-Anhalt. Its first head of a district administration, Robert Sesselmann, was elected in June in the Sonneberg district, in the state of Thuringia.
