The way to early elections in #Germany is deliberately winding and leads¹ through a (lost) motion of confidence. Today's motion is only the 6th ever. Remarkably, all these votes were held during my lifetime, 3 of them while I was employed as a professional German Politics Watcher.
@kaiarzheimer Hm, if you use the GDR as control you might be able to test for the influence of "the Arzheimer" factor on the stability of German politics? ;p
