Few things can the expectations of the major parties, which depend on the outcome of state elections in Rhineland-Palatinate, better described as the selection of the halls where the followers earnings could learn. The SPD will be content with their Group Hall fasting Deputies building. Since water stains adorn the taupe carpet, the ceiling is low, the breathing air is scarce. The jubilation would actually fade quickly. but he does not. The CDU, however has rented in the vaulted hall of the electoral castle opposite. Everything is tall and big and chic. So even rings out the disappointment around the room.
plans for such celebrations to be forged before the election so long. And so one of his time-flagging, doubting SPD decided by Prime Minister Malu Dreyer for their usual environment and the strong, confident CDU for a real castle. After 25 years she was the SPD out of power. With a grand gesture.
It had also long looked after, that this would succeed. Had but you predicted the outcome of the election six months ago, the CDU would probably have opted for less pomp. Not only in view of 43 percent, a dozen percentage points more than the SPD, the CDU of top candidate Julia Klöckner in September 2015 had in surveys, their result is an absolute disaster.
the SPD now is clearly in the CDU. Dreyer campaigner fall in the arm. Everyone wants to be there when the distance to the CDU was still enormous. However, red-green is history. None of the two major parties can with a small – a participation of AFD have both ruled out – form a government. The Great must get together or forge a tripartite alliance. “Why not,” said Dreyer towards FDP. We have had good experiences with each other.
The “Klöckner-CDU” enjoys the SPD in a low esteem
Elsewhere now would be a grand coalition expected. In Mainz not – the SPD due. “Last resort”, she calls Dreyer. Goes even further state leader Roger Lewentz: “. A large coalition that I close this evening from really” SPD and CDU can not good together. The last major coalition was between 1947 and 1951. That’s only knowledge of history. Interestingly, the CDU live relatively well with Malu Dreyer. It receives high approval ratings among their sympathizers. The SPD supporters and officials, however, are to speak badly on Julia Klöckner. “Klöckner-CDU” has become a standing notion that no friendly tone is added.
As the SPD in any form whatsoever arranged with Klöckner , is an interesting question the next few weeks. The CDU top candidate has not ruled to hold office under Dreyer. Maybe it also has something else to do. Namely, when the CDU-Landesverband plunges back into the chaos of previous years. . On disappointment known often follows frustration, and that is dangerous
blame for the roles of the two women, who now culminates in this election result was the refugee policy – also because it revealed the character of the candidates. Klöckner played a double, yes Triple Play. Firstly, it was the top candidate in the country. They wanted down to earth and affable occur. In addition, however, she was again attributed as CDU Bundesvizin responsibility for the course of Angela Merkel in refugee policy. Nevertheless Klöckner flirted constantly with its direct connection to the Chancellor.
As asked probably many potential voters why they publicly it was repeatedly required to submit counter-proposals that Chancellor. At first this seemed to catch. But Klöckner bogged in the truest sense of the word. Not later than the position paper she wrote with the unfortunate campaigner Guido Wolf from Baden-Württemberg, is considered a gross error of their campaign.
Between all their roles establish harmony and balance it, was difficult for her last. This manifested itself in the TV duels with Dreyer or the tips of the other parties. Klöckner seemed wooden, sometimes even scathing, took refuge in cliches and platitudes that looked like an ironic comment on their many roles. “I make sure that stay together the ends,” she said in a duel with Dreyer. It was her eröffnender set.
Dreyer contrast relied more on its principles. So she took the position of Angela Merkel in the refugee policy, because they corresponded to the her, and threw her opponent before falling the Chancellor even in the back. Dreyer’s result shows that there is no critical attitude towards the refugees needed to consolidate its own values.
Many prefer chose equal the AfD
one must the average SPD voters in the country now not hold for an unconditional supporter of the open borders policy. Because at least in Rhineland-Palatinate, the SPD is still genuine People’s Party. At Dreyer arrived, they remained true to himself. “Citizens have me simply familiar,” she says tersely evening. At Klöckner repelled that they seemed to be unfaithful. Since then many chose rather just foreigners opponents of AfD, now move for the first time in the state legislature and promise there operate no fundamental opposition.
For Klöckner depends on the coalition negotiations but still far more than any office in Mainz. It was a few years ago therefore Bundesvizin the CDU, because the wife of the future recognized her. It was a bonus. she was now on without having to date political moves much to the influential voices of the CDU. Some saw in it already a chancellor for 2021. A Julia Klöckner, which is not even minister, but only faction leader of the largest opposition party, will have a hard time to legitimize their federal political function permanently sufficient.
Whether it remains at all, they would not say after their defeat. “I am now only times here in Mainz. One should a few minutes after the election do not have an answer for everything.” Klöckner stands before the fight for their political future. By contrast Dreyer now faces the question of whether it would not have to receive more federal political weight. On an as the SPD has been waiting for.
In the center of Mainz pranksters had made their crosses before the election at Dreyer. On Malu Dreyer. At slipped posters black crosses disfigure the head of a little exaggerated grinning Prime Minister. Whether this was intended as a vote for or against Dreyer? That which is ever become an open question, one of the oddities of democracy.
