Olltoghchán lán le teannas sa Ghearmáin. The German public is heading to the polling booths today for the country’s general election. Tá pobal na Gearmáine ag tabhairt na mbothanna vótála orthu féin inniu don olltoghchán sa tír. Up to 60m people are eligible to vote and it is said that politics was not as divided over there as people remember. Suas le 60m duine atá i dteideal vótála agus deirtear nach raibh an pholaitíocht chomh scoiltithe thall ansin le cuimhne na ndaoine. It is certain that there will be no clear winner, so the best party that emerges will rely on other parties to form a Government. Táthar anann is cinnte nach mbeidh aon bhuaiteoir glan, mar sin beidh an páirtí is fearr a chruthaíonn ag braith ar pháirtithe eile le Rialtas a bhunú. The rise of the AfD (Alternative Fur Deutschland), a far-right party that believes immigration is out of control in the country, is worrying centrist parties. Díol imní do pháirtithe atá sa lár an borradh mór atá tagtha ar an AFD (Alternative Fur Deutchland), páirtí atá an-fhada ar dheis agus a chreideann go bhfuil cúrsaí inimirce ó smacht sa tír. There is a different direction for Germany, that is what the party strongly claims. Tá malairt treo ann don Ghearmáin, sin a mhaíonn an páirtí go láidir. This party is expected to have a 20% vote share, the strongest vote since the Nazi era in the country. Ceaptar go mbeidh sciar vóta 20 faoin gcéad ag an bpáirtí seo, an vóta is láidre ó ré na naitsíoch sa tír. The problem with the AFD is that, short of a miracle, it will not entice any other party to form a coalition government. An fhadhb atá leis an AFD ná d’uireasa na míorúilte, nach meallfaidh sé aon pháirtí eile le comhrialtas a bhunú. The Government party, the Social Democrats (SPD), also has its own problems and it is thought that the voting public will have little sympathy or sympathy for them in this matter. Tá a gcuid fadhbanna féin freisin ag páirtí an Rialtais, Na Daonlathaithe Sóisialta (SPD) agus ceaptar gur beag gean ná trua a bheidh ag an bpobal vótála dóibh siúd an iarraidh seo. The Christian Democrats (CDU), the traditional conservative party led by Friedrich Merz, are thought to do best in this general election. Ceaptar gurb iad na Daonlathaithe Críostaí (CDU), an páirtí traidisiúnta caomhach faoi cheannasaíocht Friedrich Merz, is fearr a chruthóidh san olltoghchán seo. It is understood that they will then look towards the SPD and the Green Party in order to gain a majority to form a Government. Tuigtear go bhféachfaidh siadsan ansin i dtreo an SPD agus Comhaontas Glas ar mhaithe le móramh a ghnóthú chun Rialtas a bhunú. As is often the case, the economy is the big issue in the general election as Germany has been in international decline for 2 years. Mar is minice an cás, is í an eacnamaíocht an cheist mhór san olltoghchán agus An Ghearmáin ag cúlú go hidirnáisiúnta le 2 bhliain. But in the wake of that and a related issue depending on your opinion, is the issue of immigration and a debate being strongly fostered by the AFD. Ach sna sála leis sin agus ceist atá gaolta leis ag braith ar do thuairim, is ea ceist na hinimirce agus díospóireacht á chothú go láidir ag an AFD. Some of the crimes that have been drawing attention for some time and the way right-wing parties are using them to bring up the issue of immigration are not helping. Ní haon chabhair é roinnt de na coireanna atá ag tarraingt cainte le tamall agus an bealach a bhfuil páirtithe den eite dheis á n-úsáid le ceist na hinimirce a tharraingt anuas. By 5pm Irish time today we will have an idea of how the majority of the German public voted in this general election. Faoin 5 a chlog am na hÉireann inniu beidh barúil againn cén bealach ar vótáil formhór de phobal na Gearmáine san olltoghchán seo.
