Only a few days left to the European Parliament Elections 2024! So go to the polls and #UseYourVote! From 6-9 June, more than 400 million EU citizens are eligible to vote in this year’s EU election, making it the second biggest democratic election on the globe. In this episode of #TalkingWithEU, our two co-hosts, Cora Rimoldi and Felix Fend, together with our two guests, Carmen Noviello and Ludovica Colosimo dive deep into the way our European Elections work. We talk more about the ‘Spitzenkandidaten’ principle, what it is, and why it didn’t work the last time in 2019. And we’re not tipping around the elephant in the room: What are the chances of current European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen being reelected after this year’s election? But we discuss also in this episode: Are our guests going to vote in this election, and why or why not? What has changed in the last years that led to the rise of right-wing and far-right parties in the polls, while the Greens are projected to loose seats? And what do we need to make the European Parliament Elections really more European and democratic?
