Hesse Election Results Confirm Doubts About Grand Coalition

Executive Summary

Berlin, October 29, 2018: The grand coalition parties CDU and SPD have experienced a further upset at the regional election in Hesse. Both parties, traditionally the strongest political forces in Germany and currently tied together in a dysfunctional coalition on a federal level, suffered severe losses of more than 10 percent points each. It is likely that we will witness an intensified debate on the coalition’s future in the coming weeks. Angela Merkel’s position will be under increased scrutiny.
