- Reposted by Julian Limberg📣Pub Alert! Here I causally identify (one of the only outside of the USA) a negative effect of a voter ID pilot scheme from 2018. This scheme was less restrictive than that used at the 2024 GE, implying a greater proportion of people were excluded from voting in June and a fairer system is needed.

- Reposted by Julian LimbergThe election proved the narrative wrong. For the Linke the election was a huge success while BSW failed to make it above the 5%-threshold. The Linke managed to win young progressives especially in cities. Ironically, this would probably not have been possbile had Wagenkencht stayed in the party
