Parallel to the generla election, the Berliners were asked to vote in a referendum as well, for or against leaving the airport of Tegel open. This is a hot issue, since the new BER airport is delayed by years due to incompetence, and is a total disaster, and already now is too small, not to mention there is still no realistic opening date.
It seems that 60% of the Berliners said they want Tegel to be left open. The legal situation is tricky. The referendum is not binding.
