Is This Election A 4-Party Race?

Well....I watched RTL TV this afternoon, and they've done a poll across Germany.

ONLY 4 parties have more than 5-percent of numbers.....CDU/CSU (33-percent), AfD (18-percent),  SPD (16-percent) and Greens (11-percent).  FDP, Linke and BSW were 4-percent or lower.

Shocker?  The recession, economy, and general trends.....lead to a majority focused only upon these four parties.  

BSW?  It's mostly former Linke Party folks and some lefty-disgruntled folks who were former SPD voters.  Beyond that....there's not a lot to attract folks.

I would suggest the race stays mostly in this trend....SPD gains a few points....the CDU likely wins, and this is mostly about how you build a coalition between the CDU/CSU and the SPD.
