Schmidt Retains West German Rule
West Germany’s 1970s era coalition led by Chancellor Helmut Schmidt appears set for a four year term as early exit polls show the Social Democrats and Free Democrats with a narrow majority. ZDF and ARD projections place the coalition around 50 percent of the vote and about 251 to 253 seats, with CDU/CSU finishing short of the bloc’s combined strength. Leaders from the opposition doubt governing stability though Schmidt hailed the result as a victory.
