Election Poll

I noted in this mornings German news....another political poll.

This one comes a couple of days after the Barcelona attack, and might have influenced the public to some degree.

CDU: 38-percent
SPD: 24-percent
AfD: 9-percent
Linke Party: 9-percent
Green Party: 7-percent
FDP: 8-percent

For the CDU-CSU coalition strategy to work, either the Greens or FDP....need to top 9-percent....if you do all the numbers and figure the 50-percent-plus method of the math to work.  Presently, I'd have doubts that either can get the 9-percent, or that the CDU-CSU dynamics can top 38-percent.  This leads Germany back to the CDU-CSU-SPD gimmick for the next government....something that probably three-quarters of the nation would prefer not to happen.
