>A state election was held in Hesse on 28 October 2018. It followed the vote in Bavaria two weeks earlier. Like in Bavaria, the parties of Chancellor Angela Merkel's federal government coalition − CDU and SPD − lost more than 20 percentage points combined (CDU -11.3%, SPD -10.9%), while the Hessian CDU's coalition partner The Greens and the opposition party Alternative for Germany (AfD) won the biggest increases in votes compared to the last election in 2013. The AfD's gains (+9%) were slightly larger than those of The Greens (+8.7%), making it the greatest net winner by additional votes and seats. In addition, smaller parties saw little gains. Turn-out decreased by 5.9 points to 67.3%.

Not sure if regional elections in Germany justify a thread. If you unironically support these anarcho communists from the green party you need a lead filling in your cranium. Nice to see the afd is doing relatively good.

I'm not really following the lore of the afd party, but next to the NPD for better or worse they are. You essentially can't vote for anyone but these if you oppose marxist globalism.

>Angela Merkel told her conservative party on Monday that she intends to step down as its leader but remain Germany's chancellor following a pair of state election debacles, German media reported.
>Merkel had previously indicated that she planned to seek another two-year term as leader of her Christian Democratic Union at a party congress in December, but appeared to be moving quickly to acknowledge pressure for renewal.
>News agency dpa cited unidentified party sources as saying Merkel told an ongoing CDU leadership meeting that she's prepared to step down as party leader but intends to remain chancellor. The mass-circulation daily Bild also reported that she said she won't run again as party leader.

>Sunday's election in the central state of Hesse saw both Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union and the center-left Social Democrats lose significant ground, while there were gains for both the Greens and the far-right Alternative for Germany. Merkel's party managed an unimpressive win, narrowly salvaging a majority for its regional governing coalition with the Greens.
