| | North Rhine-Westphalia state election, 2005 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The North Rhine-Westphalia state election, 2005, was conducted on May 22, 2005, to elect members to the Landtag (state legislature) of North Rhine-Westphalia in Germany. |  | | For much of 2004, there had been speculation that if the opposition Christian Democratic Union were to win this election, they would gain a two-thirds majority in the national upper house, the Bundesrat, and force a new election for the Bundestag by making the country ungovernable for Gerhard Schröder's coalition. |  | | This would be the first non-SPD government in North Rhine-Westphalia since 1966. |

 | | Speaking from his office in Berlin, Mr Schröder last night confirmed that he would set out to persuade the president, Horst Köhler, to hold elections for the Bundestag, or lower house of parliament, "as quickly as possible". |  | | He said that after yesterday's crushing defeat by the conservatives in North Rhine-Westphalia - where the Social Democrat party (SPD) had held power for 39 years - the basis for his government's policies was no longer there, and he was now seeking the clear support of Germans for his reforms. |  | | Last night Angela Merkel, leader of the main conservative opposition party, the Christian Democrats (CDU), hailed her party's victory in North Rhine-Westphalia as a sensational result, adding: "Early elections would be good for the country. |
