German Election Race Narrows Amid Security Threat.
Chancellor Angela Merkel's hopes of forming a new center-right government suffered a blow on Friday, two days before Germany's federal election, as a new opinion poll showed her just short of her goal.The Forsa poll showed 26 percent of voters were still undecided, suggesting Germany could be in for another cliffhanger election. Merkel's conservatives saw a similar poll lead nearly vanish on election day four years ago when Steinmeier's mentor, then-Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, mounted a furious comeback in the final days before the vote.
