Re: German Elections Open Thread (none / 1)
It appears that the CDU actually lost votes from the last election.  The FDP, Greens, and Left all gained.

So overall, a leftward shift in the electorate resulted in a rightward shift in government.  I wonder how much of the right-coalition's gains came from the constituency seats and how much from the lists.

On the economy, as well as the environment, the FDP is far away to the right of the CDU/CSU.

I wonder how much of the right-coalition's gains came from the constituency seats and how much from the lists.

The percents posted are for the lists.
