"HELLO! I'm Cornelius Golembiew- 11 ski from the cdu. Could I give you our manifesto and a leaflet about Johannes Selle, our local candidate?" The woman at the door beams: "We already voted by post, so don't worry!" Mr Gol-embiewski wishes her a good day and pulls out his phone, opens an app called Connect17 and taps a smiley face. "When we started, we were the only party that did this," he explains. Along with other young activists, he is plying the hilly streets of Jena, in the state of Thuringia, doing something new to continental Europe: door-to-door canvassing.
