Re: German elections Thread (none / 1)

ok guys. I just received two calls from people who know the exit polls that were conducted until about one hour ago. But I promised to remain quiet until about 18.00 (under any circumstances, I want to prevent them from getting trouble out of this, for publishing exit polls before 18.00 is not allowed).

All I can say: There will be a surprise.

Re: German elections Thread (none / 0)

and hmm

Sagen wir es mal so, die ersten Exit-Polls kurz nach 16:00 Uhr brachten ein für Frau Koch-Mehrin durchaus überraschendes Ergebnis. Zwischenzeitlich haben sich die Werte aber wieder - nun - normalisiert. Mmh, war das verschlüsselt genug? Ich hoffe es mal ...

I mean the naughty secrecy and not telling. :-) This election is really a nailbiting thing and it looks like it is still not over - I mean the nailbiting.

A poster on the same thread you're quoting from says Koch-Mehrin's post is actually from last night, apparently she was just running scenarios.

How about a hint - is the surprise good or bad for, well, Schroeder or Merkel (take one)? Ah, well, 18 minutes now...

Re: German elections Thread (none / 0)

Ok, apparently I have missed that the FDP has been a murky lot during the last twenty years or so. What then could be the surprise? Red/Green/MoreRed ?
