Angela Merkel is set to be punished by voters over her open-door refugee policy in Germany's 'Super Sunday' state elections

source 

Summary: 
On Super Sunday three german regions vote for state legislatures; and Christian democratic union Party is expected to see  drop in support, those are the first major elections in Germany since the start of the migration crisis. The Merkel's "open door" has been criticized in Germany. And while the big winners are winning Social Democrats are losing. 
Losses: It is predicted to be uncomfortable viewing for Merkel's Christian Democratic Union when polls close in Baden-Wuerttemberg, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saxony-Anhalt today
Anti-Merkel: Right-wing activists protest against German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Berlin on Saturday, ahead of Sunday's state elections, the first since the start of the refugee crisis
  • Baden-Wuerttemberg, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saxony-Anhalt all vote and Angela Merkel's party set to lose support in the wake of refugee crisis
  • Anti-immigration Alternative for Germany(AFD) set to win seats, plus right-wing populism has won new support across the EU in the wake of the refugee crisis, with parties with similar agendas to AfD rising in the polls. 
  • Germany registered nearly 1.1 million people as asylum-seekers last year, plus Merkel said  'we will manage' the challenge.

  • Personal Opinion 

  • I Think this is a tricky topic because there are a lot of refugees and there isn't enough space for everybody, and in Germany they only want the "graduated ones", the better ones, because of that the policy is being criticized. I really don't know what we should do, maybe repair the conflict in Syria (and not keep fighting for money, because that's what France, Russia and others are doing).
