Life

On October 5, 2009, Till left the SPD. He justified his resignation from the party by saying that the SPD had moved too far to the left. For the mayoral election in 2012, the independent Till was supported by the CDU, FDP and the Citizens' Alliance of Göppingen (BAG). On October 14, 2012, Till was confirmed for a second term as Lord Mayor by 61.85 percent of the voters. On October 17, 2013, he joined the CDU after having been supported by the CDU for years.
