France has a new president. Schleswig Holstein will probably have an SPD Green government and the left and far right have large gains in Greece.
And Francois Hollande's partner, a renowned journalist, is spectacularly beautiful.
At 21.00 Irish time the SPD and CDU have 30 seats each in the new parliament in Kiel.
The Pirate Party are the political sensation of the evening.
It might be worth noting that one of the leaders of the Pirate Party, Johannes Ponader an artist by trade, claims unemployment benefit.
Mr Ponader studied theatre after obtaining the best possible results in his Abitur - final school exam.
Irish Tánaiste and Labour leader, Eamon Gilmore is in Paris. RTE interviewd the Tánaiste in Paris. An unfortunate clip with a puppet-style man standing directly behind Mr Gilmore. It was awful television.
