Marten is daar hartstikke blij mee en heeft er zin aan.<br><br>Zelf vertelt hij hierover: \u201cMet trots maak ik bekend dat ik door D66 leden ben gekozen als lijsttrekker voor de gemeenteraadsverkiezingen van 2026 in Midden-Drenthe. Sinds juni 2023 ben ik fractievoorzitter en sinds april 2025 maakt onze fractie deel uit van de coalitie. Goed bestuur vormt voor mij de basis: luisteren naar argumenten uit de samenleving \u00e9n naar voorstellen van het college. Alleen op basis van vertrouwen kunnen we samen werken aan een toekomstbestendige gemeente.<br><br>In ons verkiezingsprogramma staan jongeren centraal. We maken keuzes voor betaalbaar en duurzaam wonen, een leefbare en veilige omgeving, gezondheid en sport, en een sociale gemeente waarin iedereen meetelt. D66 kiest voor samenwerking en duurzame oplossingen. Geen loze beloften, maar samen de schouders eronder.<br>Ik kijk ernaar uit om met inwoners, organisaties en collega-politici te bouwen aan een sterk en eerlijk Midden-Drenthe.\u201d<br>Marten Leistra\t<\/p><div class=\"content-accordion js-content-accordion\" data-accordion-opened=\"0\">\n\n\t\t\t<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"content-accordion__border\"><\/div>\n\t\n\t<button id=\"content-accordion-trigger-2987777583\" class=\"content-accordion__trigger js-content-accordion-trigger\" aria-label=\"Expertises (portefeuilles)\" aria-controls>\n\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__heading\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"heading   heading__size--medium heading__font--sans heading__weight--bold\" id=\"nav-expertises--portefeuilles-4155\">\n\tExpertises (portefeuilles)<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/div>\n\t<\/button>\n\n\t<section id=\"content-accordion-panel-2987777583\" class=\"content-accordion__panel js-content-accordion-panel\" aria-hidden=\"true\" aria-labelledby=\"content-accordion-trigger-2987777583\">\n\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__description\">\n\t\t\t\tOnderwerp 1, onderwerp 2, onderwerp 3.\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n\t<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"content-accordion__border\"><\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"content-accordion js-content-accordion\" data-accordion-opened=\"0\">\n\n\t\n\t<button id=\"content-accordion-trigger-3586721294\" class=\"content-accordion__trigger js-content-accordion-trigger\" aria-label=\"Functie historie\" aria-controls>\n\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__heading\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"heading   heading__size--medium heading__font--sans heading__weight--bold\" id=\"nav-functie-historie4648\">\n\tFunctie historie<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/div>\n\t<\/button>\n\n\t<section id=\"content-accordion-panel-3586721294\" class=\"content-accordion__panel js-content-accordion-panel\" aria-hidden=\"true\" aria-labelledby=\"content-accordion-trigger-3586721294\">\n\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__description\">\n\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"content-accordion lists content-accordion__lists lists__weight--medium lists__color--black lists__type--default\"><li><label>2018-2021<\/label><span>Gemeenteraadslid<\/span><\/li><li><label>2021-2022<\/label><span>Commissielid<\/span><\/li><li><label>2022-heden<\/label><span>Fractievoorzitter<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n\t<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"content-accordion__border\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\t  <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n<div\n  id=\"\"\n  class=\"wrapper  wrapper__spacing-bottom-large--50 wrapper__spacing-bottom-desktop--70 wrapper__spacing-bottom-mobile--50  wrapper__gutter--none\"\n  >\n  \t<div class=\"wrapper__container wrapper__container-width-large--default\">\n\t  <div class=\"wrapper__inner wrapper__width-large--18 wrapper__width-desktop--22 wrapper__width-mobile--24 wrapper__offset-large--6 wrapper__offset-desktop--2 wrapper__offset-mobile--0\">\n\t\t<section class=\"block-text-title\">\n\t<div class=\"block-text-title__title\">\n\t\t<h3 class=\"heading  heading__color--black heading__size--medium heading__font--sans heading__weight--bold  block-text-title__heading\" id=\"nav-3169\" data-nav-heading-mobile=\"\">\n\t<\/h3>\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"block-text-title__content\">\n\t\t<p class=\"paragraph paragraph__align--left paragraph__color--black paragraph__size--default\">\n\t\t\t<\/p>\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"block-text-title__sidebar\">\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\t  <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":322,"featured_media":1195,"menu_order":3,"template":"","search-tags":[37,38,47,26],"labels":[35,29,30],"division-tags":[49,36,44],"class_list":["post-174","people-type","type-people-type","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","search-tags-fractie","search-tags-fractieteam","search-tags-kandidaten-gr26","search-tags-lokaal","labels-commissielid","labels-fractie","labels-fractieteam","division-tags-fractie","division-tags-kandidaten","division-tags-kandidatengr2026"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>D66 Midden-Drenthe &#8212;
