A few hours before the polling stations close, there are indications that the turnout in the state election in North Rhine-Westphalia will be slightly lower than in the 2017 poll.

By 4 p.m. it was 53.35 percent on average in eight selected districts and urban districts, as state returning officer Wolfgang Schellen announced on Sunday afternoon.

He rated this as “moderate voter turnout”.

Düsseldorf – In the 2017 state election, it was around 59 percent at that point.

The random survey was based on data from the districts of Düren and Gütersloh, the Rhine district of Neuss and the independent cities of Düsseldorf, Duisburg, Essen, Cologne and Mülheim an der Ruhr.

At the end of election day in 2017, a turnout of 65.2 percent was recorded.

In the state elections in NRW in 2022, 128 constituencies will vote.

Polling stations close at 6 p.m.
