Political party

After Ute Vogt had been involved with the Jusos since 1983 , she also became a member of the SPD in 1984. From 1991 to 1994 she was the spokeswoman for the Jusos in Baden-Württemberg . From 1993 she was a member of the SPD state executive. In 1995 she was elected deputy state chairman. From 1999 to 2009 she was the SPD state chairwoman in Baden-Württemberg.

In 2001 she ran in the state elections as the top candidate of the SPD against Prime Minister Erwin Teufel . Although it failed to achieve its stated goal of changing government, the SPD improved by 8.2 percentage points and achieved its best national result since 1972 with 33.3 percent of the vote.

Since 2001 she has been a member of the presidium of the SPD. From 2003 onwards Vogt was deputy federal chairwoman of the SPD. For the federal party conference in October 2007 she was no longer nominated for the office of vice-chairman. At the federal party conference on October 26, 2007 in Hamburg, she was elected as a member of the party executive in the first ballot with 345 votes.

She was again the SPD's top candidate for the state elections in Baden-Württemberg on March 26, 2006 , in which the SPD achieved 25.2% of the votes and thus fell back to the level before Vogt's first top candidacy in 2001.

After the state elections, Vogt took over the chairmanship of her parliamentary group and thus the office of opposition leader in the state parliament. Again and again she had to assert herself against internal party critics. Although the state party conference in Fellbach in September 2007 was preceded by a heated discussion about her, after a combative speech she was confirmed as state chairman with 77.4 percent.

At the beginning of 2008, she announced her resignation from the group presidency. On January 10, 2008, Claus Schmiedel was elected as her successor .

In response to the south-west SPD's poor result in the 2009 federal election and its own performance in the Stuttgart I constituency , it announced on September 30, 2009 that it would no longer run for the state chairmanship of the SPD. At the state party conference of the SPD in Karlsruhe on November 27, 2009 , Nils Schmid was elected her successor.
