Hessen Finals

Election wrapped up in Hessen.

CDU with 27.9 percent, ten points down from five years ago.  Merkel's party slipped.

SPD with 19.9 percent.

AfD with 12.1 percent, who were non-existent 5 years ago.

Greens with 19.5 percent, seizing a big surge.

FDP with 7.5 percent.

Linked Party with 6.6 percent.

You can suggest a CDU problem with votes, and a severe SPD loss.  Nationally, the SPD might go for a leadership change. As for the AfD?
They aren't going away. That's it for eight months for state election activity in Germany.
