Germany: Merz's CDU comes out on top in Lower Saxony polls

The conservative Christian Democratic Union (CDU) has remained the strongest force at district level in the northwestern state of Lower Saxony following local elections there , preliminary results released on Monday show. The elections on Sunday received an unusual degree of attention, as they were seen as a gauge of support for the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) following its landslide win in state elections in Saxony-Anhalt last week. The elections were to choose mayors, district administrations and local councils in the state. In what will doubtless be a relief for under-pressure Chancellor Friedrich Merz , his CDU came in first with 27.2% of the vote, slightly down on the 31.
