Biography[]

Auerbach was born in Train Village to parents of German and English ancestry. He is a surveyor by occupation.

Auerbach joined the Sylvanian socialists in 1994 and was selected as the gubernatorial candidate in 2000 after the incumbent, socialist George Sawyer, declined to stand again. He was narrowly elected, but was defeated after his first term by libertarian Alfred J.Q. Robinson. Auerbach Alley in Clave Rock is named in honour of his time as governor.

He joined the King's Party in 2003 and stood unsuccessfully in every federal and Sylvanian election until 2008, when King's Party was disbanded. He was known as a loyal follower of Yuri Medvedev and joined Medvedev's new party, the PCP. He wanted to stand in the 2008 elections but failed a candidate assessment test and was therefore not selected by the party. He considered taking the party to court over the decision and standing as an independent at the next election, but was persuaded not to do this by Medvedev.

Despite qualms about the merge with the NSP and later reform into the CPL.nm, Auerbach remained with the party. He was in talks with United Left about the possibility of joining them, and agreed to speak at their September 2013 conference, but he chose not to after the party prematurely claimed he was joining them. Auerbach briefly considered founding his own party, but decided it would be easier to reform the CPL into a social democratic party from within.

In 2015, Auerbach announced he was standing for the leadership of the party. In an article for TNCT[1], he stated the party had fallen under the influence of extremists, naming in particular the former prime minister Anna Maria Whithdonck-Malsky, and said 'the moderate majority must stand up and be counted.' His main proposal was to form an election pact and possibly a merge with United Left. He was heavily criticised for this by more leftwing elements in the party, such as Burt Schwartz[2] and Caroline Tywomeski, but received endorsement from Lovian Future leader Katie Conroy.[3]
