Live blog
Since Thursday, the EU countries have been electing a new European Parliament. On Sunday, the European elections will end with votes in Germany and most other EU countries. All developments and news in the stern live blog.
Around 360 million people are eligible to vote in the tenth European elections since 1979, from Finland to Malta, from Portugal to Romania. In Germany, around 65 million citizens (aged 16 and over) can vote, with 35 parties and political associations standing for election. Germany has 96 of the 720 members of the new European Parliament.
Is there a lesson for the federal government, i.e. the traffic light coalition parties? How will the CDU fare, how will the AfD fare, how will the Sahra Wagenknecht alliance fare? Which smaller party will manage to get a seat if there is no five percent hurdle?
All about it here in our live blog!
