German state and local elections, September 2006

[Tender Branson]

The WASG chapters of Berlin and Mecklenburg are considered rogues by the federal WASG.

Something like the CDU and the CSU in Bavaria What is the treshold for being in the house in Berlin ? 4% or 5% ? If it´s 5%, then the WASG has to battle. MVP is also interesting to watch. What´s the treshold there ? I hope the Nazis (NPD) stay out of the state parliament, currently polling at 4%.

New poll for Berlin (Forsa, 08/19):

SPD 32%
CDU 21%
Left.PDS 16%
Greens 14%
FDP 10%
Other parties 7%

Looks like Red-Red-Green coalition to me. Is that the current power structure in Berlin already?

As far as i know, there´s a SPD-Left Party-Coalition in Berlin right now.

Btw, do you want to know what seems to be one of the major issues of the Mecklenberg campaign? "Who is going to pay Bush's barbecue???"
Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania is Angela Merkel's homestate and she invited Bush to visit her there back in July. Now, the state government of Mecklenburg is arguing with the federal government who is going to pay the bills for Bush's visit.

The US should pay it ! *sarcasm ends here* It´s not Merkels or Mecklenburgs fault that this man´s security is that expensive...

Allthough i never had anything to do with Berlin politics, except for the fact that i sometimes follow german elections, i took the test and the results were:

1) FDP - 63,3%
2) CDU - 61,7%
3) SPD - 46,7%
4) Greens - 45%
5) Left Party - 43,3%
6) WASG - 43,3%

There were about seven questions i answered 'neutral' on, just because I had no idea what they were talking about.

Looks exactly like my result

Damn, the Nazis at 7% ? Hopefully their campaign implodes and they won´t come into the state parliament.

Yippi, i´m a YaBB God now

BTW what is a YaBB God ?

They wont. They've gotten into state parliament before. Those Easterns must like totalitarianism.

Well YaBB is a forum code that was used on this forum before phpbb and the term YaBB God wasn't changed when we changed formats.

Yeah of course its a forum code that you have more than 500 posts but for what stands YaBB ? Do you probably know ?

There´s also a new Bavaria poll. The next state elections are in 2008.

CSU: 58%
SPD: 16%
Greens: 10%
FDP: 6%
Left: 3%
Others: 7%

Does any of the Germans in here know if Stoiber is leaving before 2008 or after the elections ?
