A majority of German citizens see the application by CSU boss Markus Söder for the Union's candidacy for chancellor as positive.

In a representative survey by the opinion research institute Civey on behalf of the “Augsburger Allgemeine” (Wednesday), 58 percent of those questioned correctly stated that the Bavarian Prime Minister had declared his willingness to become the Union's candidate for chancellor.

30 percent said that they believe Söder's grip on the top candidate to be wrong.

Twelve percent were undecided.

According to the information in the Union camp, the backing for Söder is particularly large: 86 percent of CDU / CSU supporters welcome Söder's step as the right one.

50 percent of the Greens supporters and 47 percent of the SPD voters rate it as positive that the CSU boss wants to run.

Among the FDP supporters there are 45 percent.

Only among the supporters of the left and the AfD is the rejection greater than the approval.

At the same time, according to a survey, CDU boss Armin Laschet does very poorly in the duel for the Union's candidacy for chancellor.

This is the result of a representative survey by the opinion research institute Forsa, from which the newspapers of the editorial network Germany (Wednesday editions) quote.

According to this, only four percent of the respondents are of the opinion that Laschet is “strong in leadership” and “dynamic”.

In contrast, challengers Söder consider 57 percent to be “strong in leadership” and 36 percent to be “dynamic”.
