Bundestag Question

[General Tso]

Aside from the Grün Partei, what is the name of the current Socialist party in the Bundestag? Are there any hold overs from the SED still active in the government?

Hi General

the party "PDS" (Party of the democratic Socializm) has some hold overs of the former SED and is active in the government.

With 4% of the votes in 2002 the PDS is not represented at the parlement. They need 5% of the total to be represented in the government. So they don't have influence in the actual Bundestag.
