State elections in Saxony: Why experience and acknowledging mistakes count more in politics than inexperienced alternatives.

The state elections in Saxony are due to take place on September 1, with the CDU, AfD and Bündnis Sachsen Weck (BSW) having the best chance of winning the most votes. Amid widespread dissatisfaction with federal politics in Berlin, many voters are considering casting their vote for the AfD or BSW in protest. But when in doubt, why might it make more sense to vote for a party that has made mistakes but has political experience instead of relying on inexperienced alternatives?

Politics is a complex field of action characterized by the interplay of diverse interests, historical developments and future challenges. Experience is crucial here in order to be able to make the often difficult decisions that are necessary to shape society.

The importance of experience: an analogy to dentistry

To illustrate the importance of experience in politics, we draw an analogy to other highly professional professions, such as dentistry. A dentist who has been practicing for many years will have been faced with a variety of cases and complications. Even though this dentist may have made a mistake once, they will be able to learn from it and make better decisions in the future. Wouldn't you rather trust an experienced dentist with a complicated dental treatment than a newcomer with no practical experience?

The situation is similar in politics: politicians who have already been in government understand the complex mechanisms of the political system better and can make informed decisions based on experience. They also make mistakes, but the willingness to own up to them and learn from them is a sign of responsibility and maturity

Political inexperience: risks and challenges

Inexperienced political actors without government experience can be appealing in their independence and enthusiasm, but there is a risk that they will get lost in the complexity of the political system. Without the knowledge of procedures and the necessary foresight, decisions can be made that have unintended negative effects on society.

In politics, as in dentistry or other professions, mistakes are unavoidable. However, the crucial difference lies in the ability to recognize these mistakes, take responsibility and learn the right lessons from them.

Why this choice is important

The decision to elect experienced politicians can have a stabilizing influence on society. In times of political uncertainty and social challenges, it is essential to rely on leaders who can build trust through experience, a wealth of knowledge and a clear vision for the future.

Conclusion

Although disappointment with current federal politics is understandable, voters in Saxony should bear in mind that political experience is often the more reliable choice, despite past mistakes. The value of a politician lies not only in their flawlessness, but also in their ability to learn from mistakes and competently steer the fate of the country. Just as you trust an experienced dentist, you should also trust an experienced politician to shape the best possible future for the country.

Background: Saxony has an eventful political history and is often the focus of national political debates. The state elections on September 1 are seen by many as an indicator of the political mood in Germany.

History: Saxony has made a decisive contribution to the country's political landscape since the reunification of Germany in 1990. The CDU has long been the dominant political force, but in recent years new political movements have emerged to challenge the traditional political order.
