The SPD and CDU finally agreed on a new date for Germany's next parliamentary election, now set for February 23, 2025, amid a bitter political climate.
This decision comes after days of fraught negotiations over logistics as the governing coalition collapsed, prompting a vote of no confidence that required an expedited election.
President Steinmeier is expected to endorse the new election date, which was pushed forward against earlier requests for a January election by the opposition.
With more than 60 million eligible voters, the logistics of the election are intricate, especially with pressing concerns like potential paper shortages affecting ballots.
