New constituency in Bavaria: CDU points to Green Claudia Roth – Merz is outraged. SPD criticizes Merz: “Any agreement is blocked” Dirk Wiese, deputy chairman of the SPD parliamentary group, urged the CDU leader to exercise moderation.

“Merz, with his irresponsible half-knowledge, damages the credibility of our democracy when he falsely speaks of electoral manipulation,” said Wiesese. Since June 2023, at least six rounds of voting, including theCDU/CSU, have taken place to adjust constituency boundaries.
