Helmut Kohl: Chancellor of German Unity
On October 1, 1982, the German Bundestag elected Helmut Kohl Federal Chancellor. Of the 495 votes cast, 256 were cast for the leader of the Opposition and chairman of the CDU/CSU parliamentary group, who thereupon replaced Helmut Schmidt (SPD) as head of government. After the results of the vote were announced by the Vice President of the Bun- destag, Richard Stucklen, the supporters of the newly elected Chancellor gave him a standing ovation lasting several minutes, while the losers made no effort to conceal their despondency. Actually, however, the outcome of the parliamentary vote could not have come as a surprise to anyone.
