Merz wins after delay
The Gazette
|May 07, 2025
FRIEDRICH Merz eventually succeeded yesterday in his bid to become the next Chancellor of Germany during a second vote in the country's parliament, hours after he had suffered a historic defeat in the first round.
-
The conservative leader had been expected to smoothly win the vote to become the nation's 10th Chancellor since the Second World War.
No candidate for the post in post-war Germany had failed to win on the first ballot.
Mr Merz received 325 votes in the second ballot. He needed a majority of 316 out of 630 votes in a secret ballot, but only received 310 votes in the first round - well short of the 328 seats held by his coalition. Because the votes were secret ballots, it was not immediately clear - and it might never be known - who had defected from Mr Merz's camp.
