Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s Social-Democratic Party is expected to secure 16% – if confirmed, its worst showing since 1949. According to Financial Times, the party is poised for “its worst defeat since 1887.” The SPD’s partners in the now defunct traffic-light coalition, the Greens, were backed by 13.5% of the voters and the Free Democratic Party by a mere 4.9%, according to ARD’s exit poll. The Left Party can presumably count on 8.5% of the vote, with the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance, which was created last January, debuting with 4.7%, the broadcaster reports. | |
