Okay, then elaborate please, what's the situation like?

I'm just transposing what I know from Swedish politics, given that Germany also has municipal counties with a certain degree of input. In Sweden, the 2018-2022 government tried (and failed, due to legal problems) to overrule municipal councils where the Sweden Democrats were influencing their governing coalitions to refuse to receive asylum seekers, in some cases even paying other municipalities to receive them instead.

Hence that voting districts with high SD voter counts now have fewer migramts than other parts of the country.
