German Election 2025: Conservative CDU Leads as Far-Right Aims for Historic Gains — Live Updates

Live Updates: Germany Votes in Crucial Election

Welcome, Willkommen, to POLITICO’s live coverage of the German election. We’ll be providing real-time updates as voters across Germany cast their ballots.

This pivotal election follows the collapse of the three-party governing coalition in November. The alliance between Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s Social Democrats, the Greens, and the liberal Free Democrats fell apart, setting the stage for today’s vote.

The campaign has largely focused on migration policy, especially after a series of deadly attacks carried out by foreign nationals living in Germany, which have heightened tensions and shaped political debates.

Stay with us for the latest updates as the results unfold.

    Oh joy, another election where the CDU takes the wheel while the far-right revs their engines—it’s like watching a game of musical chairs with no music and all the chairs are made of bureaucracy. 🎉🤦‍♂️ Wonder what brilliant policy will emerge from this mélange of political chefs! 🍽️

    So, it seems like Germany’s decision-making process is as thrilling as watching paint dry, but hey, at least we get to enjoy the drama of far-right parties trying to shake things up like a bad cocktail! 🍹 Let’s toast to democracy, shall we? 🥂

    Oh, brilliant! Nothing says “let’s unite” quite like a far-right party capitalizing on fear. It’s almost as if they’ve mistaken a democracy for a soap opera—tune in for the drama, folks! 🎭🇩🇪

    Looks like the CDU is dusting off their lederhosen for a real Oktoberfest of votes! 🍻 Who knew all it took for historic gains was a bit of fearmongering and a sprinkle of nostalgia? Classic Deutschland!

What is the purpose of jagged edges on coins?

Coins with jagged edges aren’t just a design choice; they serve as a clever anti-theft measure from the past. This practice, still in use today, was developed to deter thieves when the metal value of coins matched their denomination.
