Back to EpisodesRhineland-Palatinate Election: Tight Race for State Leadership
Description
In Rhineland-Palatinates tight state leadership race, incumbent Alexander Schweitzer of the Social Democrats faces challenger Gordon Schnieder of the Christian Democrats. The latest poll gives CDU a slight edge, but SPD is close behind. The SPDs long-standing coalition with FDP and Greens may crumble, with FDP potentially out of parliament. Both candidates are similar in age and demeanor, but Schweitzer leads in personal popularity. The far-right AfD is expected to gain, but no party will partner with them. A grand coalition between SPD and CDU is likely, with the top job up for grabs. With twelve percent undecided, the results could significantly impact national party strategies.
