Green Party Chancellor Candidate Predictions: Jürgen Falter Backs Annalena Baerbock

In an interview with the German newspaper "Bild", political scientist Jürgen Falter has expressed his expectations for the federal executive board of the Green Party. Falter, a Senior Research Professor at the University of Mainz, predicts that the board will propose Annalena Baerbock as their chancellor candidate on April 19.

Falter suggests that Baerbock is likely to be the Green Party's choice, citing her diligence, issue-focus, and professionalism as reasons for her suitability for the chancellorship. He also notes that she has demonstrated psychological resilience that could be crucial in the role.

In the same interview, Falter also discussed Robert Habeck, another potential candidate. He describes Habeck as more likable, verbally adept, and ambiguous, but notes that both he and Baerbock are rather bourgeois and support a bourgeois traffic light coalition. Falter suggests that Habeck would also have good chances if the decision were based on polls.

However, Falter asserts that the Green Party's decision will not be based solely on polls or political trends, but rather on their "instincts" and "genes". He also predicts that both Baerbock and Habeck would be ready for a Green-Red-Red coalition if there was no Green chancellor in a specific constellation.

It is worth noting that Falter's predictions are based on his analysis of political trends and election dynamics in Germany. For more specific information about his predictions, it might be helpful to consult academic publications or news articles that focus on German political analysis.

The interview with Jürgen Falter was published in the Thursday edition of "Bild" newspaper. The Green Party is expected to make a decision about their chancellor candidate on April 19, according to Falter's predictions. The decision could mark a significant shift in German politics, as the Green Party continues to gain popularity and influence in the country.
