Kraft just came out in favor or Red/Green.

... and she addresses her supporters with the traditional "Genossinnen und Genossen" ("comrades").

Re: Exit poll (4.00 / 3)

I watched RTL news. Peter Klöppel seemed depressed...

Now watching ZDF on livestream. Greens rep attacks Rüttgers hard for blaming the federal political situation for the election loss, saying that the Greens fought a campaign with local themes and doubled their votes.
