SPD Faces Internal Struggles as Boris Pistorius Gains Popularity Over Olaf Scholz
In light of the current ARD-DeutschlandTrend, members of the SPD favor Minister Boris Pistorius over Chancellor Olaf Scholz as their future candidate. With only 21% of voters considering Scholz a good candidate compared to 60% for Pistorius, the SPD’s position in upcoming elections is a concern. Historical parallels are drawn to the 2005 elections, where a similar pattern emerged. Meanwhile, the polls show a strong lead for the Union party, reflecting the SPD’s challenges in converting voter potential into electoral support.
