Update, 4:55 p.m.:

Could the now deleted Twitter post from FW boss Huber Aiwanger be expensive for him?

According to the federal electoral law, it is an administrative offense to publish “results of voter surveys after voting on the content of the voting decision” before the polling stations are closed.

This can "be punished with a fine of up to fifty thousand euros".

The Bavarian coalition partner - in the form of CSU General Secretary Markus Blume - reacted immediately to the unauthorized post.

“Hubert Aiwanger distributes forecast results before 6 p.m. and connects them to an election call,” Blume wrote on Twitter and added: “An unbelievable case of election manipulation and voter influence.

That is deeply undemocratic and must have consequences! "

Huber Aiwanger publishes polls before 6 p.m.

Update, 4.35 p.m.:

Not very clean, which Hubert Aiwanger, head of the Free Voters, did on Sunday afternoon.

Apparently he noticed that himself later.

A tweet he posted about exit polls (polls on election day) by the Elections Research Group has since been deleted.

Christian Deutschländer, head of politics at 

Münchner Merkur

, secured the contribution.

The “iron” rule is that exit polls may only be published when the polling stations are closed.

Exciting: Hubert Aiwanger tweeted ExitPolls.

And quickly deleted because it is highly punishable.

Here, a little service, the screenshot.

Update, 12:28 p.m.:

Already at lunchtime, there is a higher turnout in Bavaria's largest cities.

This also applies to Munich.

By 11 a.m. in the morning, around 60 percent of voters in the state capital had already cast their votes.

With this, the city breaks a new election record.

Because a similar value was only reached around 2 p.m. in the last federal election in 2017.

Incidentally, the proportion of postal voters is particularly high in Munich this year.
