Bremen has a new mayor: Andreas Bovenschulte, who leads the first red-red-green coalition in a West German state.
His coalition holds a 49-seat majority in the 84-member state parliament (Bürgerschaft). Bovenschulte only received 47 votes in the secret ballot..
The SPD under its former mayor Carsten Sieling didn't come out as the strongest party in the May state elections for the very first time since the foundation of the Federal Republic.

Bovenschulte sounds very Low German.
