The ANO leadership is choosing from three candidates for Prague's leader.
The leadership of the ANO party is considering three potential candidates to lead their Prague branch after Prokop, who previously held political positions, resigned following criticism over a housing scandal where he failed to disclose properties in his asset declaration. The party’s chairman, Andrej Babiš, stated that the case has damaged the party’s reputation. Media had speculated that the candidate could be a member elected in Prague, with names like Patrik Nacher and Barbara Rázga being mentioned. Babiš previously rejected speculation that Health Minister Adam Vojtěch might be the top candidate. On Monday, the ANO leadership also approved Senate candidates for the upcoming elections, excluding districts 1, 5, and Czech Lípa, where they are still deciding among multiple candidates. ANO plans to field representatives in all districts where elections will take place. Chairman Havlíček emphasized that ANO is the strongest group in the republic, while coalition partner SPD leader Tomio Okamura suggested preferring joint candidates to help governing parties gain a majority in the Senate.
Brněnské hnutí ANO se v poslední době zapletlo do situace, která naznačuje vnitřní neprospěch a zároveň významnou výzvu pro jejich komunální strategii. Podle informací získaných Deníkem N se hnutí snaží najít řešení pro personální nouzu, která se v souvislosti s odchodem desítek výrazných členů začala projevovat již v červnu. Tato situace vede ke zvláštním situacím, kdy někteří lídři hnutí rychle změnili své bydliště – některé dokonce až v rámci samotné moravské metropoly. Toto se týká i trojice kandidátů na magistrátní funkce, což naznačuje, že hnutí ANO musí přijít na vlastní způsoby, jak zajistit vhodnou přítomnost v různých částech města.
Mezi tyto situace patří i případ dřívějšího zastupitele Moravana Jindřicha Rybky, který se původně považoval za prakticky jistého kandidáta na magistrátní funkci. Rybka však nebyl v této obci, kam se chystal kandidovat, a až letos si přehodil své bydliště do moravské metropoly. I přesto, že tento krok byl zjevně způsoben potřebou pro volební strategii, Rybka odmítl spojitost s volbami. Podobný scénář se opakuje i u jiných kandidátů, kteří mají podobný zážitek s změnou bydliště. Tato situace naznačuje, že ANO musí přijít na vlastní způsoby, jak zaručit, že jejich kandidáti budou správně umístěni v rámci města, což může mít vliv na výsledky komunálních volb.
V kontextu volebního roku, který se blíží, se ANO snaží získat víc mocí v celé republice. To se projevuje i v tom, že hnutí vybírá mezi třemi kandidáty na pozici lídra v Praze. Prokop, který minulý týden vzdal všechny politické funkce kvůli kauze s byty, zanechal v ANO značný otisk. Babiš, předseda hnutí, označil, že kauza způsobila škody hnutí. Na druhé straně se objevují spekulace o tom, že ANO by mohlo v Praze vystoupit s novými tvářemi, například s poslanci zvolenými v hlavním městě, jako je Patrik Nacher nebo Barbora Rázg. Babiš však odmítl spekulace, že by jedničkou ANO v Praze mohl být ministr zdravotnictví Adam Vojtěch.
V rámci volební kampaně se ANO rozhoduje i o tom, jaké kandidáty poslat do různých obvodů. Předseda ANO Milan Havlíček zdůraznil, že hnutí je nejsilnější uskupení v republice. Na druhé straně se vyskytuje i zájem o společné kandidáty, což by mohlo vést k koalici mezi vládními stranami, aby získaly v Senátu většinu. Tato situace naznačuje, že ANO se v rámci volební kampaně snaží o maximální vliv, i když se musí vypořádat s interními problémy a vnitřními konflikty.

The Czech newspaper Deník N reports that the ANO movement in Brno is facing personnel challenges ahead of municipal elections. The article states that some leaders of the movement do not have permanent residences in the areas where they intend to run, and others recently changed their addresses. This issue affects both the city council candidates and the mayoral candidates. The paper notes that this situation was identified earlier in June, when it became clear that the movement was quickly gaining new members, sometimes despite local branch opposition. Additionally, former representative Jindřich Rybka, who was considered a likely candidate, moved his residence to Brno just this year, though he denied any connection to the elections.
