Bekommt »vdL« noch ein Spitzenamt für ihre Sammlung? Kommt Friedrich Merz heute auf Reformideen für seine Herbstkollektion? Und wo in Deutschland kommen Handys noch auf den Pausenhof? Das ist die Lage am Montagmorgen.
Tnx, so the Bundestag elects her. Is she popular there as far as you know?
I used translation option to read the article. Don’t know how the original reads, but translations was bad or it reads sensationally weird to me. Anyhow it sounded all like gossip, is this correct?
Yes and no. The president is elected by the Bundesversammlung (federal convention) which exists and meets solely for this task. It consists of all members of the Bundestag, the federal pairlament, and an equal number of designees from the states pairlaments who are elected by the pairlaments in advance of the presidential election. The individual share of the latter depends on the population of the state.
She isn’t, but the president isn’t elected by popular vote but from parliament.
