In addition to his party's survey values, the popularity values of CSU boss Markus Söder also dropped.While 49 percent of people in the Free State were still satisfied with Söder's work in July, it is now 47.9 percent.These have been the worst approval values for Söder since March.
CSU general secretary Markus Blume sees the responsibility for slipping in the national trend, less in Bavaria.“If the CDU is just over 20 percent nationwide, the distance from the CSU is still well over ten percent.We can't completely decouple ourselves, "said Blume of the newspaper.
Söder had previously expressed himself similarly."CSU results depend on the federal government," said Söder."In the state election, I admit that we are really responsible, we cannot talk ourselves to a national trend," said Söder.
