Will Andrea Ypsilanti become Ministerpräsident of Hesse before Jan 1st, 2009?
Settled as No
She has stepped down as leader of the SDP in Hesse, so this can settle now as No.
http://www.welt.de/english-news/article2694146/Hesse-SPD-leader-steps-aside-before-vote.html
Background:
After the February-elections, SPD-candidate Ypsilanti failed to gain a majority in the Parliament to get elected. Since then, incumbent Roland Koch leads a minority-government.
There are more and more reports about preparations of a red-red-green deal to ensure Ypsilanti's election in Hessen soon. But- how will the change in leadership in the federal SPD effect these plans?
Will Andrea Ypsilanti become head of the Hessian Government before the beginning of 2009?

Settlement requested Fri 7th Nov 12:39am PST by horatiomonty: I agree that it's unlikely, but it is not yet entirely clear that she cannot make it. What if the 4 "rebels" suddenly change their minds? No final decision made yet, right? No settlement. My two cents.
