German Chancellor Angela Merkel of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and her husband Joachim Sauer (back) smile as they arrive to cast their votes for the general election in Berlin, September 27, 2009. Germans voted on Sunday in a federal election that looks likely to return Merkel to power but may deny her the centre-right government she says is needed to revive Europe's largest economy.
