Red-Red-Green at the federal level?

Although the chancellor candidate and designated SPD chairman Martin Schulz has achieved survey successes in recent weeks, which may change quickly, the current surveys show that the red-red-green coalition does not yet have a majority at the federal level.

Whether the outcome of the state elections in the Saarland on 26 March 2017, in Schleswig-Holstein on 7 May 2017 and in North Rhine-Westphalia on 14 May 2017 could lead to a trend opening up government opportunities for the red-red-green coalition, or whether a movement to prevent red-red-green coalition would emerge from these state elections, remains to be seen.
