30 more minutes to vote in Hamburg

Apparently turnout is rather low - for German considerations. Exit polls are indicating that the CDU will be a bit above 40, the SPD only shortly above 30 (less than anticipated), Greens around ten, the Left party most likely in the parliament, but weaker than the Greens, and the FDP is only scratching at the 5 percent margin. They must be suffering under the tax fraud scandal with Liechtenstein. The Hamburg SPD however got a kick in the n*ts by the national Chairman Beck, who forced them into a debate about the Left Party just before election day. Lastly, the Left Party might end up below the last polls because of some old-style Communists on their list, who have a hard time accepting that the GDR is gone - and for good!
