Munich's mayor has celebrated a decisive victory in a citywide referendum, with over 66 percent of voters supporting a bid to host the Summer Olympics. The exact year for the potential bid remains undecided, with options including 2036, 2040, or 2044. Supporters argue that hosting the Games would drive improvements in housing, public transport, and local business, while opponents have voiced concerns about the financial burden. The mayor described the result as an endorsement of bold and sustainable urban development. Munich now faces competition from other German cities and international contenders, as public votes have played a crucial role in shaping Olympic bids in recent years.
