I'm upbeat German SPD will reject Merkel coalition: youth leader

Image
By Michelle Martin and Holger Hansen BERLIN (Reuters) - The leader of the youth wing of Germany's Social Democrats (SPD) is optimistic a majority of the party's members will vote down another alliance with Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservatives, he told Reuters on Friday. The result of the SPD's binding ballot of its roughly 464,000 members will be announced on Sunday, more than five months after an inconclusive parliamentary election. Europe's largest economy and pre-eminent power-broker would probably face a new election or a minority government if SPD members reject another tie-up with Merkel. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines http://ift.tt/2CUAvra via Latest News
