Bavarian voters made political history on the 28 September 2008 when they robbed the Christian Social Union, sister party to Angela Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union, of its ruling majority for the first time in 46 years. The CSU lost its decades-old absolute majority as voters defected to smaller parties in a state election seen as a test of support ahead of national polls in 2009. |
