Centre-right CDU and CSU parties win election, say exit polls
Germany’s centre-right CDU and CSU parties have won the federal elections with about 28.5 to 29 per cent of the vote according to exit polls, paving the way for CDU leader Friedrich Merz to become chancellor at a time of economic and political upheaval in Europe’s largest democracy.
The far-right Alternative for Germany co-led by Alice Weidel recorded its best result with 19.5 — 20 per cent of the vote on Sunday, according to the preliminary projections by state broadcasters ARD and ZDF. That is double what the anti-immigration party achieved in 2021.
Meanwhile Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s Social Democratic Party won just 16 to 16.5 per cent of the votes.
I keep saying, you guys only strengthen the other side when you try to control what people are allowed to say and even think.
Focus on up vs. down, not left vs. right. We’re being distracted by cultural issues while the ruling class fucks us with fiscal ones.
Every single person who focuses on the culture war over the class war is playing right into the hands of our rulers.
Somebody fell for right wing propaganda.
Not really.
Left vs right is literally down vs up
No, it’s not. I’m sorry if you’re delusional enough to think otherwise.
You may have had a point if Bernie won a nomination, but the left has made it clear they don’t care about reducing the disparity in wealth.
If you meant democrat vs republican just write that next time lol
in Germany???
I don’t think Bernie was running for Die Linke. You’re out of scope bud. It’s Germany 🇩🇪 election.
If you haven’t noticed, the rest of the western world lives in America’s shadow.
They follow. They don’t lead.
Okay, well the US “left” and “right” may not be up to the usual standards, but it quite literally is up and down elsewhere and in premise.
if you, as a voter, can’t identity the Nazi as a “down” we’re already too far gone for civil discourse.
the only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.
Good job playing right into the hands of the ruling class.
Go outside and tell me how many nazis you see.
have faith that they are there. just because you don’t see them at the market doesn’t mean they aren’t there.
funny how terrorists are everywhere but Nazis aren’t.
Neither are “everywhere.”
