Lower Saxony Landtag election occurs today. die Sonstigen ("the others", roughly) Appear to be a Frisian party. Wir kommen aus der BGE-Bewegung, der Tierbefreiungsbewegung, der Menschenrechts- und Bürgerrechts-Bewegungen, der EU- und UN-Reformbewegungen, der Berliner Hausbesetzer innen-Szene, der feministischen Bewegungen der 2. und 3. Wellen, der queeren Gemeinschaft, der LGBTI-, der Behinderten- und Psychiatrie -Erfahrenen-, der Mieter_innen-, Anti-Gentrifzierungs-, Obdachlosen-, Vagabund_innen-, Drogen-Nutzer_innen, radikale bildende Künstler_innen-, Arbeiter_innen-, Arbeitslosen-, Arbeitsverweiger_innen- und Gefüchteten- Bewegungen und nicht zuletzt aus der Arten- Natur- und Klimaschutz-Bewegungen; wir sind Anhänger_innen der bürgerlich-liberalen und moderat-konservativen, der liberalen, sozialliberalen, sozialdemokratischen, demokratisch-sozialistischen, basisdemokratischen, sozialistischen oder anarchistischen, allenfalls aller egalitären politischen Philosophien; wir sind spirituell oder humanistisch. Wir sind Reformer_innen oder Revolutionär_innen, die trotz unglaublicher Enttäuschungen den Glauben nicht verloren haben.
Rik from the Young Ones was obviously taken seriously on small Frisian Islands.

Lower Saxony Landtag election occurs today. If the polls are correct it may be a nail biter for the FDP on weather they get seats.

No, RedGreen is so far ahead*, that FDP missing would rather help TheGreens (by enabling them to choose between SPD and CDU). *Yes, during RedGreen 1998-2005 the CDU performed often stronger than anticipated and the AfD has been rising recently, but a majority for the 3 (mid)right parties should be out of reach in this SPD-strongHold.

RedGreen is PM Weil's preferred option (instead of continuing the Grand Coalition). Even, if the FDP will enter the LandTag once again, they have a majority (only 1-2 though).

First seat is SDP by 0.1 and the FDP projected vote has dropped below 5 but I am guessing it's going to be close.

There won't be a theoretical blackgreen option, though no one campaigned w/ such a gov't in mind anyways. I'm apparently so bored with the FRG I didn't realize this was today until the early afternoon.

An extremely narrow Red-Green majority in Lower Saxony has never went wrong before… Oh, right - but it had worked for years. But anyWay: With the FDP at 4.7% they will have a broad majority.

Pollster-perFormances in LowerSaxony: So, in the final few days they achieved deViations of ~1% per party, what is absolutely satisfying. ForschungsGruppeWahlen/FGW did best with just 0.7%.

Renegade Green Boris Palmer reelected as Mayor of Tübingen (can't remember why they expelled him).

Recall vote for my own mayor here in Frankfurt coming up in two weeks. I'd still like to know when the election will be held if he's successfully recalled and who the Green and SPD candidates will be before I vote yes, but I guess it's not to be. And because I won't be here on polling day, I just collected my postal ballot. Recall takes the votes of 30% of the electorate as well as 50% of valid votes, which in a city with lots of recent migrants from EU countries who're only allowed to vote in unimportant elections like this is a high hurdle, and of course there are no polls, but I don't really think Feldmann survives.
