European Union - The Berlin SPD leadership deems the election outcome as extremely bitter.
"It's surprising how many people have chose to support the right-wing AfD, despite all the scandals. These people aren't just voting for a protest, but effectively bringing Nazis into the European Parliament." The SPD remain staunchly opposed to the right-wing radicals.
On the federal and state levels, the SPD experienced losses. By the end of the count on election night, the SPD was around 13.2% in Berlin, trailing behind the Greens and almost on par with the AfD. This is the SPD's poorest performance in European elections within Berlin.
