Berlin is a city state, one of three in Germany. The others are Hamburg and Bremen.
Wild-card in this election is the Russian-German vote. AfD went out and had various ad’s around the city in Russian, and clearly went after the bulk of the 300,000 Russian-Germans in the city-state. Voting pattern reported this week on absentee ballots is that a lot more people were voting than usual. Could fake out the poll expectations.
I hope this ugly-a$$ muzzard-loving hag gets trounced and is forced to resign.
