Update from Monday, 09/27/2021, 12:45 a.m.:

The last extrapolation of the election evening confirms the SPD's stability as the party that emerges most strongly from the 2021 federal election.

Closely behind is the Union, which, despite a disappointing result, is now speculating on various coalitions.

This became clear in several roundtables on Sunday evening.

Chancellor candidate Armin Laschet tried both to get closer to Olaf Scholz and to look for common ground with Christian Lindner from the FDP and Annalena Baerbock from the Greens.

Bundestag election 2021 results: SPD in front of Union - left fears

Speaking of the Greens:

Baerbock and her party could not live up to the self-imposed claim to become the strongest party.

Despite the lack of percentage points to the Union and the SPD, the Greens want to co-govern in the next four years.

Several coalitions are possible, for example Jamaica with the SPD and FDP.

While the SPD, the Union and the Greens are haggling over coalitions, the FDP is watching what is happening for the time being - and defining conditions that will allow it to participate in coalitions.

The left is currently looking at the five percent hurdle instead of coalitions.

According to the latest projections, it could be very tight (see update from 11.40 p.m.).

+++ 11.40 p.m.:

Suddenly the left would no longer be in the Bundestag.

According to the latest extrapolation from Infratest Dimap (ARD), the Left Party received only 4.9 percent of the vote.

The remaining parties around the SPD and Union are sticking to their values ​​compared to previous projections for the Bundestag election earlier in the evening.

Janine Wissler, the party's top candidate, also missed her direct mandate.

However, three other direct mandates (two in Berlin, one in Leipzig) will ensure that the Left Party will move into the 20th Bundestag.

FDP boss Christian Lindner said on Sunday evening: "We govern in very different formats in Germany." Now it could be advisable that the parties that campaigned against the status quo, so the Greens and the FDP talk to each other first, "said Lindner.

Robert Habeck, co-leader of the Greens, had previously made the FDP an offer to talk.

It is true that one is “close to the SPD”, but one could also imagine an alliance with the FDP.

Habeck also emphasized, however, that this is possible, for example, under the leadership of the Union.

Again, the ARD has published new projections for the results of the federal election.

+++ 7 p.m.:

Armin Laschet has also underpinned the claim to leadership within the new federal government.

The Union absolutely wants to prevent Germany from being governed by a “left alliance” in the future.

Federal election 2021: next breakdown - Aiwanger publishes secret numbers

+++ 5 p.m.:

Shortly before the polling stations closed for the federal election, the next mishap occurred.

Bavaria's Minister of Economic Affairs, Hubert Aiwanger, published top secret figures on forecasts.

He made himself a criminal offense.

+++ 4.30 p.m.:

Annalena Baerbock *, top candidate of the Greens *, commented on the outcome of the federal election in 2021 in Potsdam.

Federal election 2021: results - first figures are there

+++ 4.00 p.m.:

The first numbers for the federal election in 2021 are there.

As the Federal Returning Officer announced on Sunday afternoon, the turnout on site was 36.5 percent until 2 p.m.

At the same time, the turnout in the 2017 election was 41.1 percent.

However, with the current data, the postal voters do not count: inside.

Federal Returning Officer Georg Thiel explained: "As expected, the current voter turnout is below the 2017 value, as we are assuming a significantly higher proportion of postal voters whose participation will be determined at a later point in time when determining the final election result."

Federal election 2021: Election supervisor comments after Laschet's mega-breakdown

+++ 3:22 p.m.:

SPD candidate Tuna Firat from constituency 185 (Offenbach) * cannot resist a swipe at Armin Laschet on Twitter after his election failure.

He tweeted: “Incidentally, Konrad Adenauer became Germany's first chancellor with a majority of one vote.

So much for the state of the CDU and its historical comparisons. "

+++ 2.10 p.m.:

Union Chancellor candidate Armin Laschet folded his ballot paper outward on Sunday morning when he cast his vote, making it easy to see who he had voted for.

An embarrassing faux pas, because he disregarded the basic principle of the secret election - a photo of it also went through the media.

But is his vote still valid?

The Federal Returning Officer’s press team commented on this via Twitter.

“As expected, a nationally known politician voted for his own party.

It cannot be seen as influencing voters, ”the post said.

The electoral committee has to reject voters who have folded the ballot paper in such a way that the vote can be seen.

In the event of a misfolding, a new ballot should actually be distributed.

If the ballot does get into the ballot box, it can "no longer be sorted out and is valid".

(1/3) Due to current events: A nationally known politician has elected his own party, as expected.

It cannot be seen as influencing voters.

- The Federal Returning Officer (@Wahlleiter_Bund) September 26, 2021

There are signs of high voter turnout in the 2021 federal election

+++ 1.53 p.m.:

In the federal election in 2021, there is already a high turnout in some federal states.

In Lower Saxony, 36.56 percent of eligible voters cast their vote on Sunday between 8 a.m. and 12.30 p.m., as the state election management announced at the request of the German Press Agency.

In 2017 it was 32.08 percent of those eligible to vote at this point in time.

Even in the largest cities in Bavaria, such as Munich, Würzburg, Nuremberg and Augsburg, voter turnout has so far been higher.

In Saxony, on the other hand, things started a little more cautiously.

According to the state election officer Martin Richter in Kamenz, 25.9 percent have voted in the polling stations by 12 noon, in 2017 it was 27.1 percent at the same time.

In the afternoon, the Federal Returning Officer Georg Thiel wants to present the first official interim results on voter turnout, as the editorial network Germany reports.

Federal election 2021: Embarrassing faux pas when voting for Armin Laschet

+++ 11.42 a.m.:

CDU Chancellor candidate Armin Laschet also cast his vote in the federal election. He chose Aachen-Burtscheid, together with his wife Susanne. A photo captured the moment when Laschet throws his ballot into the ballot box. There was a faux pas. Because Laschet did not fold his ballot properly and is holding it in the camera so that the crosses can be seen very clearly.

A mistake, because as it says on the website of the Federal Returning Officer, the ballot should be folded in such a way that the vote is not recognizable. There it says literally: "The electoral committee has to reject a voter if he has marked or folded his ballot paper outside the voting booth or folded his ballot paper in such a way that his vote is recognizable or has marked it with an externally visible identifier that obviously endangers voting secrecy. "

+++ 11.12 a.m.:

Olaf Scholz, SPD candidate for chancellor, and the Bavarian Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU) have already cast their votes for the 2021 federal election. Scholz filled out the ballot paper together with his wife Britta at the Max Dortu School, Söder put his paper in the urn at the Theodor Billroth School.

+++ 10.31 a.m.:

The federal election in 2021 is in full swing.

The polling stations have been open since 8 a.m.

In some cities in NRW, people are preparing for mask refusers in the polling stations.

In Cologne, for example, mobile urns would be set up outside the building for "those who absolutely do not want to wear a mask," said a city spokesman on Friday.

In Aachen, Duisburg or Essen, for example, masks are available in the polling stations.

If voters nevertheless refuse to put on mouth and nose protection, operations in Aachen, for example, are to be briefly interrupted, as a city spokeswoman said.

+++ 9.55 a.m.:

One day before the federal election in 2021, an election

stand of

the Greens was attacked in Plauen, Saxony - a politician was injured. A man went to the stand on the Theaterplatz on Saturday, "expressed his displeasure" and then pelted an employee with an egg, according to a police spokesman. He also tried to kick a politician. The 19-year-old Greens employee suffered a bruise from it, but did not need a doctor. A spokeswoman for the Greens state association confirmed that it is the district chairwoman Lea Sophie Gauglitz. The Greens had held the perpetrator until the police arrived, who had temporarily taken the 50-year-old into custody.

Green chancellor candidate Annalena Baerbock commented on Twitter after the attack.

“The attack on our campaign stand in Plauen is shocking”.

Baerbock added: “All the more, we have to stand up for our liberal democracy every day.

And I thank all of those who do it day in and day out. ”The attack in Plauen is not the only campaign-related crime.
