Germany: Poll shows low support for new CDU head as Merkel successor
Armin Laschet, just elected to chair Angela Merkel's CDU party, seems little preferred by Germans as a candidate to succeed her as chancellor in September. One pollster puts him on 12% with Bavaria's Markus Söder on 43%.

Only a minority of Germans back Armin Laschet as the conservative candidate to succeed Angela Merkel in elections later this year, according to a new poll published on Sunday.
Laschet, North Rhine Westphalia (NRW) state's premier, won a three-way race to chair the Christian Democrats (CDU) on Saturday, the party of exiting Chancellor Merkel.

Armin Laschet defeated two rivals to become the leader of the Christian Democrats (CDU), the party of Chancellor Angela Merkel. However, the BBC's Berlin correspondent Jenny Hill predicted a fierce and chaotic leadership battle in the coming months. She noted that the CDU leader is not guaranteed to become its candidate for chancellor, which will be decided in the spring.

Berlin - On Saturday, in an online party conference, Angela Merkel's CDU will elect a new leader and he will be a middle-aged man from North Rhine-Westphalia: Armin Laschet, Norbert Röttgen or Friedrich Merz. Whether one of them will then lead his party into the election campaign as a candidate for chancellor is another story.
