Surveys published on public television after polling stations close find Merkel’s Christian Democrats and their candidate Armin Laschet with around 24-25 percent of the vote, nearly tied with the Social Democrats on 25-26%.
Analysts say the trend could shift significantly as results come in, due to the large number of postal votes this year because of the coronavirus pandemic.
