The state party conference of the Social Democrats in Saarland nominated Christian Petry for first place on the state list for the European elections on Saturday. This was announced by the Saar SPD at the weekend. Petry is currently the European policy spokesman for the SPD parliamentary group in the Bundestag and deals with financial and economic policy issues in the European Committee. He is considered to have a good chance of winning a promising place on the federal list of comrades, although the Saar SPD did not receive such a place in 2019.
