Olaf Scholz was officially named candidate for his center-left party on Monday to run for a second term as chancellor in the early legislative elections on February 23, 2025 in Germany, AFP learned from internal party sources.
The leadership of the Social Democratic Party (SPD) declared itself “unanimously” in its favor, the same source said, after recent dissensions within the party on the relevance of competing with the very unpopular chancellor, given the loser by the polls.
