Merkel's Bavarian allies suffer historic election losses
Bavarian elections weaken and my destroy Merkel's coalition government and do not bode well for the globalists.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservative CSU allies suffered historic losses in Bavaria state elections Sunday, dealing a blow to her fragile three-party coalition government.
The Christian Social Union (CSU) scored 37 percent, a steep 10-point drop from four years ago in the wealthy Alpine state it has ruled almost single-handedly since the 1960s.

'Bitter losses' -
For Merkel, in power for 13 years, the Bavaria election spells a new headache just over half a year since she managed to forge a fragile "grand coalition" with the CSU and a reluctant SPD.
The "bitter" losses in Bavaria reflect voter dismay over recent coalition infighting in Berlin, conceded the CDU's general secretary Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer.
She said this "must serve as a warning for the German CDU" ahead of another dangerous state election, in Hesse state, two weeks from now.
