Schroeder humiliated in Bavaria poll
Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder’s Social Democrats have suffered a comprehensive defeat in state elections in Bavaria, exit polls suggest.
Somebody on Rantburg predicted just this :-)
The Social Democrats (SPD) fell more than 10 points to 18.5% in Bavaria, while the conservative Christian Social Union (CSU) polled 61.5%, according to a television exit poll released after polling stations closed at 1800 local time. Correspondents say voters are unhappy with Mr Schroeder’s economic policies, and are particularly concerned about the rapid rise in unemployment.
Looks like Stoiber is back in business. Of course it’s just pure coincidence that Bavaria is the most U.S.-friendly country in Germany. The Oktoberfest in Munich is in full swing and there are as many Americans as ever.
