Germans, please go to vote!
-
But if you want to vote for AfD or CDU, please stay at home.
I'm not sharing many values with CDU but Germany would be well advised to have one democratic party which is distinctively stronger than AFD. And at the moment it seems that CDU is the only democratic party which can keep the country in one piece. I would very much prefer to have a strong CDU than a strong AFD and many mediocre democratic parties.

Germans, tell me your favorite pretzel bread recipe so this thread stays on active.
It's a secret! We won't tell you.

Just go the vote, and make sure your family and friends go to give their votes.
I'm not local, I cannot vote over here, but had seen multiple times in modern times voter suppression has been a big deal, it's easier to make you not to bother to vote than change your mind who to vote.
I had worked brexit UK, where people voted it due they weren't happy about the PM. As it was good time to vote against him. Without thinking what brexit actually was. So use your voice by voting. What do you wish the future of country will be in this new era.
I know German has issues, as every Europe union contries. If the problems are easy to solve they would have been solved already, don't belive one tag line promises.
I'm just wanna say, as a fellow reddit user. Just go to vote.
Always vote folks!

I would, but it's 16 hours early.
Do I have any hope for a progressive government? Do I have hope that anyone but Merz becomes chancellor?
No, too many old men in this country for that.
But damn it, I have 1 vote to cast and cast it I will give it 100% to a party I tolerate. Not voting is voting for the end result, and the AFD doesn't deserve 1% of my vote, let alone what percentage they end up at.

The CDU is already voting together with the AfD in several parliaments including the national one, I really don't think the CDU is going to help us out of this mess. They want exactly the same things as the AfD, they're just slightly less crass about it.

Warning: Bad design, but instead of arguing over the top part, which definitely has some considerations that make it a bit more complicated, my main concern is the bottom part.

In few countries in eu "the local CDU" had been vocal how they would never work with "local AfD", but when both of them got most votes, they had put together the government with only two parties.
And that is my biggest worry. Like I do not agreeing with CDU, but them working with others that AfD is way better option that they going to bed with them. As it's just possible being a huge mess, not like usa mess, but both parties just siding with the biggest bullies and not getting anything done. Still blaming opposition parties (their old enemies) and minorities. Plus in current world tensions, governments parties that is just having inner fightings is not good for Germany or for European Union. -

Actually you have two votes
-
If you want to vote AfD you should put a Hakenkreuz. This way the vote is counted twice.
And don't forget to sign the paper with your full name

Unless I vote for a winning independent local candidate, then my first vote is annulled.
But this isn't about the exact mechanism of German elections. I say colloquially I have 1 vote to cast/2 crosses to set.

Your vote matters, the influence of AFD must be minimized.

Other way around, if an independent wins then second votes are annulled. If a party candidate wins they're put on the top of the list of people from that party who'll get into parliament when percentages are turned into seats.

Voter Suppression isn't really a thing in Germany. You are automatically registered to vote, and absentee voting is also really easy. Fill out a form online, get the ballot per Mail and return it with a postage-already-paid envelope

I'm an American. Germans, please don't do to yourselves what we did. Keep AfD as far from power as possible.
That's exactly what I'll do tomorrow.
