Berlin: The German Social Social Democrats are locked in a very close race on Sunday with CDU / CSU / CSU CDU / CSU Germu Chancellor coming out, which leads to the worst results in the country’s parliamentary elections, projections show.
High-ranking from both parties said they hoped to lead the next German government and asked their candidates to succeed in Merkel, who had been in power since 2005.
Projections for public television Ard, based on polls out and initial counting, placing voter support at 24.9% of Democrats Social (SPD) – which lay the Vice-Remitance of Olaf Scholz for Chancellor – and 24.7% for the Merkel Bloc Union under the candidate for Governor of Laschet Governor of the State.
Separate projections for general TV ZDF Social Democrats in front of 25.6% to 24.4%.
Both put green environment in third place with support of around 15%.
These results will be the worst for Union Bloc in Germany II World War.
The electoral system usually produces a coalition government but the post-war Germany has never seen a winning party that takes less than 31% of the votes that the Union won in 1949.
It was also the worst result of the middle-center block until now.
Given the predictions of polls out, compiling with the next coalition government for the largest economy of Europe can be a long and complicated process.
Merkel will remain the leader of the guard until the new government is in place.
In the election of Germany, the party completed was first placed in the best place, but was not guaranteed, to provide the next chancellor.
Projections also put support for free business-friendly Democrats around 11% and 5% left party.
Alternatively far to German – which no one else wants to work with – seen winning around 11% of the vote.
Surrounded by Merkel and Kuningan Top his party, Laschet said, “We cannot be satisfied with the results” predicted by the poll coming out.
Trade unions need 32.9% of the votes four years ago.
“We will do everything we can to form a government under the leadership of Union, because Germany now requires a coalition for the future that modernize our country,” he said.
The most likely LASCHET route to power is a free coalition and free democrats.
Meanwhile, social democrats, celebrating a comeback after polling only 20.5% in 2017 and slipped far below it in recent years.
Their secretary general, Lars Klingbeil, said “With this, we have a mission to form a coalition”.
He will not say which coalition partners will be approached.
Scholz from social democrats can also form a free green and democrat coalition, if the results are projected to survive.
Scholz said many voters chose his party “because they wanted change of government and because they wanted the next Chancellor this country to become Olaf Scholz.” The green traditionally leaned against the Scholz and Democrats free to Laschet.
Other combinations that might repeat the “Grand Coalition” of the traditional German wholesales, trade unions and social democrats, wherever from Scholz or Laschet finished.
However, no one has a lot of appetite for it after forming a frequent alliance for 12 16-year-old Merkel.
About 60.4 million people in the country 83 million are eligible to choose a new Bundestag, or a lower House of Parliament, which will choose the head of the next government.
Merkel will not be an easy leader to follow, because he has won praise to direct Germany through several major crises.
His replacement must keep an eye on the recovery from the pandemic.
