Germany's Merkel wins second term

German Chancellor Angela Merkel was voted back into office for a second term Sept. 27, and will spend the coming weeks building a new center-right coalition with the Free Democrats. But after four years at the head of a coalition with the center-left Social Democrats — who suffered the biggest losses in the Sept. 27 vote — concerns emerged that Merkel's partnership with a pro-business party might force her into a tough position in a country used to its generous social welfare state, and reluctant to face big changes.
