Doris Raudsepp has accepted an offer to work as the deputy mayor of Nõmme after recently leaving the Reform Party to join the Isamaa party. The announcement was made by local news outlet Delfi, which reported that Raudsepp confirmed her candidature and acceptance of the new position. She is expected to begin her role in March, marking a significant change in her political career.

Before joining Isamaa, Raudsepp had been a member of the Reform Party since January 2021, during which time she successfully secured a seat in the Tallinn City Council. However, her departure from the party on February 4 resulted in the Reform Party losing a seat in the council, highlighting the ongoing political shifts within Estonian political structures.

Raudsepp’s transition to a new political role emphasizes the dynamic nature of local governance in Estonia and the impact that individual politicians can have on party representation within municipal bodies. Her upcoming role in Nõmme, a district of Tallinn, will be closely watched as she navigates her responsibilities and priorities within Isamaa.
