Description
verso labeled in typeset: (4) Shortly after the polls opened at 8:30 a.m., long lines like these were waiting outside the various polling places in the Saarland. These hundreds are waiting in the snow outside the Kron Prinzen Strasse voting quarters in Saarbrucken. About 90 per cent of the voters decided on re-aligning themselves with Germany.
