Title: Angela Merkel's CDU 'suffers Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania poll blow'

Angela Merkel's ruling CDU party has been beaten into third place by an anti-immigrant and anti-Islam party in elections in a north-eastern German state, TV exit polls suggest.

The Alternative fuer Deutschland (AfD) party took 21% of the vote behind the centre-left SPD's 30.5%.

The German chancellor's CDU was supported by only 19% of those who voted, according to the exit polls.

The vote was seen as a key test before German parliamentary elections in 2017.

Before the vote in Mecklenburg-West Pomerania, all of Germany's other parties ruled out forming a governing coalition with the AfD.

However, the party's strong showing could weaken Mrs Merkel ahead of the national elections next year.

Mecklenburg-West Pomerania, in the former East Germany, is where the chancellor's own constituency is located.

Under her leadership, Germany has been taking in large numbers of refugees and migrants - 1.1 million last year - and anti-immigrant feeling has increased.

The AfD, initially an anti-euro party, has become the party of choice for voters dismayed by Mrs Merkel's policy.

The CDU has been the junior coalition partner in Mecklenburg-West Pomerania since 2006. Its 19% in the election is its worst ever result in the state, German broadcasters said.


This is good news.

Angela is like Hillary. She suffers from dementia at the worst time in Germany's history. She is, and should be, the most despised woman in German history right up there with Ilsa Koch.

Liberals are a lot like Slinkys, they're good for nothing but they bring a smile to your face as you shove them down the stairs.
