From 2004 to 2017 he held the position of deputy chairman of the CDU district association Stendal and since 2009 he has been a member of the Stendal district council . Schulz came into conflict with the CDU district association in 2017 because he clearly criticized the CDU-Stendal election scandal from 2014 and called for an offensive internal party investigation and analysis. As a result, he was not re-elected to the district executive in 2017. With an election result of 75%, Nico Schulz became mayor of the Hanseatic city of Osterburg in 2011. In 2018 he was confirmed for another term of office with an election result of 85%. Because of the conflict with the CDU-Stendal, Nico Schulz founded the Pro Altmark voter association for the 2019 district election, with which he immediately achieved the second-best result (17%). In September 2019 he left the CDU and applied for membership of the FREE VOTERS in January 2020.

In 2002, 2006 and 2011 he was elected as a direct candidate for the constituency of Havelberg-Osterburg , most recently with 41.8% of the vote. In the state parliament he was most recently chairman of the committee for federal and European affairs as well as the media and the audit committee. When he took office as mayor, he had to resign his state parliament mandate on November 17, 2011, as it is not compatible with an active civil servant status according to Section 34 of the State of Saxony-Anhalt's law on representatives.
