German Election No Popularity Contest Faces Coalition
German voters choose Bundestag members on Sept. 19 as Chancellor Ludwig Erhard seeks re election without Brandt backing. Polls favor Erhard but post election coalitions loom. Erhard to keep Free Democrats may be enough for a majority, while Brandt’s SD increases could shift alliances. Adenauer, 89, remains party chairman but out of run.
