There will be no elections on Langeoog and Wangerooge because early elections took place there last year. Incumbent Jürgen Akkermann is running unopposed in Borkum, while only Stefan Görnert (CDU) is running in Juist. On Norderney, Frank Ulrichs (independent) faces Annette Pohl (AfD). There are two applicants each on Baltrum and Spiekeroog.
