FDP: Delegates' initiative wants higher quorum for member survey. FDP member survey for an exit from the traffic lights narrowly failed.

Now party members want to change the conditions for the instrument - and increase the quorum of signatures. A critic is outraged. "One wants to react to the exercise of democratic rights by restricting them," says the initiator of the member survey about the traffic light being turned off, Matthias Nölke. The FDP leadership around party leader Christian Lindner was able to breathe a sigh of relief.
