Thoughts about the election in germany

1. The party "SPD" is the biggest loser in this election because 23,4% is its lowest election result in history. I think a reason for this is that a lot of people who elected "SPD", decided to vote "Die Linke", which reached more than 10% the first time.
2. The big winner of the rather small parties is "Die Piratenpartei". Especially young voters, decided to elect them. I think this is just because of their name! And a lot of people who don't care who to reign germany just read "Die Piratenpartei" and thought "Ahh. pretty cool name".
3. Another big winner is the party "FDP", which reigns germany now with "CSU/CDU"
4. The voter turnout this year was very low. I think especially young voters don't care about electing.

Essay

Advertising works pretty easy, which i will show you on the advert of "Deutsche Verkehrswacht" to buckle up. The advert shows four framed photos of people different ages and different genders. The first three persons are dead, which is symbolized by the black ribbon on the upper corner of the pictures. The person of the last photo uses this black ribbon as a seatbelt. The first thing you notice, when you look at the advert is the big contrast between the bright wall and the black ribbons. Because of the bright clothes the persons are wearing, the contrast get even stronger. On this way the costumers' attention is easily attracted. So the customer thinks about the advert and understands the message of the image, that you will probably die, if you don't use a seatbelt. The advert also uses costumers' fears of being dead or injured after a car accident.
