Surprises for many candidates last night

It is worth mentioning, in the meantime, that the yesterday’s election hid surprises for several party candidates, as well as many prominent executives failed either to be elected or to win the “direct mandate” of the voters of their district.

According to the response of APE BPE from Berlin, the case of the candidate for Chancellor of the Greens is more typical Analena Berbock, which lost in Potsdam to Social Democratic Party (SPD) candidate Olaf Soltz. It was the first time that two candidates for Chancellor claimed the same mandate.

Mrs Burbock, however, secures her entry into the Federal Parliament through her list of her party in the state of Brandenburg.

The third candidate for Chancellor, Armin Lasset from the Christian Union (CDU / CSU), avoided running for “direct mandate” and was elected by list of the CDU in North Rhine – Westphalia.

He will be left out of Parliament Hans-Georg Maassen, former head of the secret services who was a candidate with the CDU in Thuringia. Mr Maassen had even been criticized by his party officials for his relations with the Alternative for Germany (AfD).

The Chief of Staff of the Chancellery also lost the battle of the “direct mandate” Helge Brown, who is elected with the CDU list in Hesse, but also the Minister of Agricultural Economy Julia Kleckner (CDU), which will be elected through the list in Rhineland – Palatinate.

Outgoing Chancellor Angela Merkel’s seat in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern lost to CDU as candidate candidate Georg Gooder lost to the Alternative for Germany (AfD) candidate.

On the contrary, the “direct mandate” in Stuttgart was comfortably won by the former leader of the Greens Cem Etzdemir, but also the candidate for the leadership of the CDU Friedrich Mertz in North Rhine-Westphalia and the Minister of Foreign Affairs Haiko Maas (SPD) in Saarland.
