Senior politicians from Germany's parties reacted on Sunday to exit polls showing Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservatives and Finance Minister Olaf Scholz's Social Democrats running neck-and-neck in a national election.
"The voters of this country have decided that the SPD should rise upwards, and that is a big success. This is going to be a long election evening, that is certain. But it is also certain that many put their cross by the SPD because they want the next Chancellor of Germany to be called Olaf Scholz.Conservative chancellor candidate Armin Laschet:
"It was clear to us that without incumbent's bonus it would be a more open, a tighter and a tougher election campaign. This is a neck and neck race. "We will do everything to form a conservative-led government, because Germany needs a future-oriented coalition that modernizes our country.""This is a spectacular success. This demonstrates citizens' faith in Olaf Scholz... The SPD is back, we are in our place again.""We wanted more. We didn't manage that, partly because of mistakes at the start of the campaign - mistakes I made.""That hurts... It's clear: the losses are raw, they are bitter.
