Lobby = representative of interests.
This sentence is redundant.

Strong support for Alpena.

This is, how is the term "doppelgemoppel"??

Lobby = Interessenvertretung.

I know, but this is not my sentence, i am just trying to translate it :-(

Helmi: doppeltgemoppelt is just what it is.

Yes, Julia, but you don't have to translate utter nonsense.

"Representative" of interests may be the exact translation but no one would say it. It's an interest GROUP which is synonymous with "lobby." The person representing the interest group is a "lobbyist."

@ Werner, thanks for that. I had the feeling I missed something.

Thank you Bill !!!
