Ok, stupid question from the US, did the Pirates run as a left leaning party? If so, than combined with Greens, Linke and SPD that would be really close to CDU/FDP vote total. Once again the threshold law rears it head.

doesn't matter, they don't get any seats without 5% of the vote.

49% rated unemployment as the biggest issue, which is seemingly 31% down on 2005.
So are official unemployment figures. (shrugs)

Official or "official"?

All offical unemployment statistics are in fact "official".

Of course.

Remind me how many seats is needed for a majority in the Bundestag?

That depends on how many seats there are. That's variable Smiley

Franzl's district is in:

Patricia Lips (CDU) wins with 40.4% to 29.6% for the SPD guy.

Good, that's about what I expected.

The leader of the FDP is gay? How progressive.

It's a non-issue though.

Are there/have there been any other major German political figures who have been openly gay?

The SPD mayor of Berlin is also openly gay. He may be party leader or chancellor candidate one of these days. He's certainly part of the left-wing of the party, however.

Why doesn't the FDP win any direct seats? Do they not bother trying?

Well first of all, what purpose would it have? It's not like it would increase their total number of seats. Why should the FDP invest specifically in order to win a couple of districts?

But the Greens only won 1 seat as well, and that's only because that candidate is massively popular in her Berlin district.

Most voters choose between CDU and SPD tactically, as it's FPTP for those seats.
