Election in Schleswig-Holstein: Daniel Günther triumphs on the Förde: “It’s an enormous vote of confidence”

Schleswig-Holstein has the choice. A good 2.3 million people are called upon to vote in the land between the seas. According to all polls, there is a clear favorite. However, one question still seems to be open.

Schleswig Holstein has voted. Just one hour after the polls closed, there is a clear winner in the land between the seas – and his name is Daniel Günther. His CDU won the state elections in Schleswig-Holstein by a landslide. This can be stated with certainty based on the first projections from ARD and ZDF.

The evening turned into a debacle for the SPD. The Social Democrats, led by their top candidate Thomas Losse-Müller, have had the worst state election result in Schleswig-Holstein in their history. The Greens are the second strongest party and can also feel like winners. Just like the South Schleswig Voters’ Association, which can easily double its number of votes. The liberals are sure to enter the state parliament, the left will clearly miss the entry. The AFD, which could fail at the five percent hurdle, has to tremble.

The old and new Prime Minister Daniel Günther is now in a comfortable situation, he can choose his coalition partner. The only exciting question is whether he will continue his successful traffic light coalition or only want to govern with a partner in Kiel.
