The German Union party has formally nominated Ilse Aigner as its candidate for Federal President, succeeding Frank-Walter Steinmeier. This nomination is largely confirmed, with signals of cross-party support from the SPD, suggesting a high probability of her election as the first female president. The formal election by the Federal Assembly in January 2027 remains the key outstanding step.
