Germany is going to the polls on Sunday for the country's federal elections, with long-serving Chancellor Angela Merkel looking all but certain to win a historic fourth term in office.

The poll is also expected to see the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) entering parliament for the first time.

Polls opened at 8am (06:00 GMT) and first projections are expected when the polls close at 6pm.

German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier urged people to go vote.

Voting is a civic duty. Go and vote!" Steinmeier wrote in an opinion piece published in the Bild am Sonntag Sunday newspaper.

Every vote counts - your vote counts,- Steinmeier asserted. People who don't vote allow others to decide the future of our country.
