Schwerin - The residents of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania are asked to vote twice.

Because in addition to the federal election, which decides on the successor to Angela Merkel, the state election will take place in the state.

For the first time, the previous Prime Minister Manuela Schwesig is standing for re-election.

It will be decided whether she will steer the fortunes of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania as head of the state for another five years.

The Social Democrats have been ruling Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania since 1998, initially under Harald Ringstorff, then Erwin Sellering, and finally Schwesig since 2017.

The SPD are majority partners in a red-black coalition with the CDU.

It is considered likely that this constellation will continue to exist.

Results of the state election of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania: Schwesig for SPD before re-election

Current surveys show: The SPD is clearly ahead, everything points to an election victory. That means: Even after Sunday, the SPD will in all probability lead a government in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. It is still unclear which coalition partners the Social Democrats will bring on board for the next five years. Schwesig (SPD) has so far only publicly excluded the alternative for Germany (AfD) as a possible partner.

Even after more than 15 years of the grand coalition, it cannot be ruled out that Schwesig will continue to govern with the CDU if the election is successful.

Provided that such an alliance appears more stable than a narrow red-red majority with the left or a three-party alliance.

However, the SPD may also orient itself towards the result of the federal election - and where the SPD will steer at the federal level in the event of an election victory.

Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania state election: The results of the 2016 parliamentary elections

In surveys, the SPD has recently expanded its great lead.

The values ​​were 39 to 40 percent.

So far, the party had only achieved a better result in 2002.

However, the CDU must fear a historic crash.

In 2016 it was only 19 percent.

And that in the political home of Angela Merkel.

The popularity ratings mean well with incumbent Manuela Schwesig.

These are well over 60 percent - and thus well ahead of CDU challenger Michael Sack.
