Germany's Social Democrats (SPD) are poised to reveal the results of a pivotal vote on their coalition agreement with the conservative parties, CDU and CSU. This decision is vital as the coalition deal has already been signed but requires endorsement from the SPD's membership, consisting of about 358,000 members. Members had a deadline to cast their votes on the extensive agreement, with the requirement that not only must a majority support it, but at least 20% of the party's base must participate. The outcome will decide whether Friedrich Merz of the CDU can be elected chancellor on May 6.
The Social Democrats of Germany are set to announce the outcome of a critical membership vote which will determine the fate of their coalition with the CDU and CSU.
The results hinge on a complex approval process where a majority vote is required, alongside the stipulation that at least 20% of SPD's membership must participate.
