The SPD ends up behind the CDU in the state elections in North Rhine-Westphalia.

Secretary General Kühnert is already planning a coalition.

Düsseldorf/Berlin – NRW elected a new state parliament on Sunday (May 15).

The CDU sees the first projections and forecasts for the state elections in North Rhine-Westphalia well ahead of the SPD.

Kevin Kühnert, Secretary General of the Social Democrats, is apparently already preparing the option of a red-green coalition in North Rhine-Westphalia.

"Black and yellow has been deselected," he said shortly after 6 p.m. on ARD.

The alliance of the SPD and the Greens is very popular in Germany, so we now have to explore it, says Kühnert.

It "wouldn't be a novelty" for the second-placed party to lead a coalition.

The general secretary said the election result was not a defeat for the SPD.
