Results show CDU/CSU will be largest party but success of Alternative für Deutschland likely to complicate formation of a government

This is a hell of a lot of inside baseball for those unfamiliar with German politics, so I’ll highlight this:

Exit polls showed the AfD did well among younger voters, winning in the 25-34 age bracket with 22% …

This is roughly in line with Holocaust denialism in the states in that age bracket from polls I’ve seen. We’re literally too far past WWII for young people to believe something that atrocious could happen, so they’re blithely voting for Nazism.
