नूशा ऑबेल ने जनता के भारी विश्वास के साथ पदभार संभाला। रन-ऑफ चुनाव में, उन्हें 72.9 प्रतिशत वोट मिले। हालाँकि, इसे पूरी तरह से समझने के लिए यह भी ध्यान दिया जाना चाहिए कि मतदान के पात्र लोगों में से केवल 42.5 प्रतिशत ने ही वास्तव में इसमें भाग लिया। यह स्पष्ट रूप से उनके पूर्ववर्ती, माइक शुबर्ट (53, SPD) के कार्यकाल के कारण था। ऑबेल खुद 24 अक्टूबर 2025 को पदभार संभालने के बाद 100-दिन की छूट अवधि नहीं चाहती थीं। उन्होंने साहसपूर्वक दावा किया कि राजनीति सुलभ, पारदर्शी और प्रभावी होनी चाहिए, जबकि प्रशासन आधुनिक और जन-केंद्रित होना चाहिए। जो कोई भी ऐसी उम्मीदें जगाता है, वह अपनी ही घोषणाओं के आधार पर जल्दी आंके जाने की शिकायत नहीं कर सकता।

ヌーシャ・オーベルは、大きな期待を背負って就任した。決選投票では72.9％の得票率を記録した。しかし、状況を正しく把握するためには、有権者のうち投票に参加したのはわずか42.5％に過ぎなかったという事実も考慮する必要がある。これは明らかに、前任者であるマイク・シューベルト（53歳、SPD）の市政運営に起因するものであった。オーベル氏自身は、2025年10月24日の就任後、100日間の「猶予期間」を設けることを望まなかった。政治は、親しみやすく、透明性があり、効果的であるべきであり、行政は現代的かつ人間味のあるものであるべきだ――と、彼女は堂々と主張した。そのような期待を抱かせる人物であれば、自身の公約に基づいて早期に評価されることについて、不満を述べるべきではない。

누샤 오벨은 큰 기대를 안고 취임했다. 결선 투표에서 그녀는 72.9%의 득표율을 기록했다. 하지만 상황을 제대로 파악하려면 유권자 중 단 42.5%만이 투표에 참여했다는 점도 고려해야 한다. 이는 전임자인 마이크 슈베르트(53세, SPD)의 재임 기간 동안의 행정 방식 때문인 것으로 보인다. 아우벨 본인은 2025년 10월 24일 취임 후 100일간의 유예 기간을 원하지 않았다. 그녀는 “정치는 친근하고, 투명하며, 효과적이어야 하며, 행정은 현대적이고 인간적이어야 한다”는 거창한 주장을 펼쳤다. 이러한 기대를 불러일으킨 사람은 자신의 공약에 대해 일찍부터 평가받는다고 불평해서는 안 된다.

努莎·奧貝爾（Noosha Aubel）上任時便獲得了極高的信任。在決選中，她贏得了72.9％的選票。不過，若要全面評估這項結果，還需注意到只有42.5％的合格選民參與了投票。這顯然是前任市長邁克·舒伯特（Mike Schubert，53歲，社民黨）任內施政所致。奧貝爾本人在2025年10月24日就職後，並未要求任何「百日寬限期」。她曾豪言，政治應當親民、透明且有效，行政體系則應現代化且以人為本。既然自己激起了這樣的期待，就無權抱怨過早地被拿來與自己的承諾相比較。

Нооша Аубель вступила на посаду, користуючись великою довірою виборців. У другому турі вона набрала 72,9 відсотка голосів. Однак для повного розуміння ситуації слід також зазначити, що у голосуванні взяли участь лише 42,5 відсотка виборців, які мали право голосу. Очевидно, це було пов’язано з діяльністю її попередника Майка Шуберта (53 роки, СДПН). Сама Аубель після вступу на посаду 24 жовтня 2025 року не хотіла «стоденного періоду примирення». Політика, згідно з її гучними заявами, має бути доступною, прозорою та ефективною, а адміністрація — сучасною та людяною. Той, хто породжує такі очікування, не має права скаржитися, що його занадто рано оцінюють за власними обіцянками.

Нооша Аубель приступила к исполнению своих обязанностей, пользуясь большим доверием избирателей. Во втором туре выборов она набрала 72,9 процента голосов. Однако для полной картины следует также учесть, что в голосовании приняли участие лишь 42,5 процента имеющих право голоса избирателей. По-видимому, это было связано с деятельностью её предшественника Майка Шуберта (53 года, СДПГ). Сама Аубель после вступления в должность 24 октября 2025 года не хотела никакого «стодневного льготного периода». Политика, согласно её громким заявлениям, должна быть доступной, прозрачной и эффективной, а администрация — современной и гуманной. Тот, кто вызывает такие ожидания, не должен жаловаться на то, что его начинают оценивать по собственным заявлениям уже на раннем этапе.

Noosha Aubel took office with a great deal of public trust. In the run-off election, she received 72.9 per cent of the vote. To put this into full context, however, it should also be noted that only 42.5 per cent of those eligible to vote actually took part. This was apparently due to the tenure of her predecessor, Mike Schubert (53, SPD). Aubel herself did not want a 100-day grace period after taking office on 24 October 2025. Politics, she boldly claimed, should be accessible, transparent and effective, whilst the administration should be modern and people-centred. Anyone who raises such expectations cannot complain about being judged early on by their own announcements.
