The Bielefeld-based newspaper “Neue westfälische” (Friday), said Laumann, the candidate for Chancellor should set the CDU. “I have not yet experienced, that a Bayer, Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany would have become,” said the North Rhine-Westphalian labour and the Minister of health. Laumann was also “very sure” that the NRW Minister Armin Laschet will be elected in December at a party rally in Stuttgart, the new party Chairman of the CDU. For the office, the economy run expert and former Union parliamentary leader Friedrich Merz, and the foreign politician Norbert Röttgen. In surveys for the Chancellor candidacy of the Union, all three are significantly behind Söder. He, in turn, repeatedly assured his place in Bayern.
