North Rhine-Westphalia state election: who will win the election?

First report from Sunday, May 15:

Düsseldorf – With the state elections in North Rhine-Westphalia, the next state election is already a week after the election in Schleswig-Holstein.

In view of the population and the seats up for grabs in the Bundesrat, the NRW elections are of enormous importance.

But who actually wins the election?

Before the North Rhine-Westphalia state elections, the winner is still completely open.

A coalition of CDU and FDP currently governs.

The Union with top candidate Hendrik Wüst wants to continue to provide the prime minister.

The chances are good, after all, the CDU is in first place a week before the election.

30 percent of the people surveyed by the research group Elections for ZDF would vote for the Union.

The CDU is still not the winner of the state elections in North Rhine-Westphalia.

Because the SPD can also show good poll results and has been more or less on par with the Union for weeks.

In the ZDF survey of May 6, 2022, only two percentage points separate them from the CDU.

The Social Democratic top candidate Thomas Kutschaty can also have justified hopes for the office of Prime Minister.

North Rhine-Westphalia state elections: Greens and FDP can crown winners

The state elections in North Rhine-Westphalia will therefore not least be won by the party that succeeds in winning over the Greens with top candidate Mona Neubaur for a coalition.

At 18 percent, they also do well in the ZDF survey and can form a coalition with both the CDU and the SPD.

However, the red-green majority is tight, so that the FDP (seven percent) with its top candidate Joachim Stamp could also become a kingmaker.

The left (three percent), on the other hand, will miss the entry into the state parliament according to current polls.

On the other hand, all parties rule out cooperation with the AfD, which would receive seven percent.
