Armin Laschet has to fear for the Union's claim to leadership.
The defeat in his home constituency also contributes to this.
Aachen - The Union will have to score a historically bad result in the federal election in 2021 *.
With Chancellor candidate Armin Laschet *, the sister parties CDU * and CSU * only achieve values of 24 percent.
This is shown by the projections for the results of the Bundestag election.
Chancellor candidate Laschet also has to accept defeat on their own doorstep.
In his home constituency, the city of Aachen in North Rhine-Westphalia, the Union also lost - both in the first and second votes.
The Greens won in Aachen.
More precisely: Oliver Krischer.
The 52-year-old got 30 percent of the first votes, his party 28.76 percent of the second votes (as of 09/26/2021, 10:34 p.m.).
