Federal Council election Slight lead for Pfister after hearing with the Green Liberals
Martin Pfister, the candidate for the Federal Council from the center, was obviously convincing at the GLP hearing. "His position is closer to ours than that of Markus Ritter", said parliamentary group leader Corina Gredig (ZH). However, this is not yet a recommendation to vote for Pfister.

Gredig told the media in Bern on Tuesday evening that her parliamentary group would continue the discussion on a possible election recommendation for the successor to Federal Councillor Viola Amherd next week. "We have not yet voted." However, Pfister is closer to the goals of the Green Liberals than Ritter.
One of Pfister's advantages is his executive experience, said Gredig. On the other hand, Ritter has a great deal of knowledge "in his core dossiers".
Overall, both candidates had "done well so far", continued the GLP parliamentary group leader. Her parliamentary group had put the candidates through their paces.
