Protests Against AfD Expected Before Saxony-Anhalt Elections
Videos
Multiple demonstrations and gatherings are expected in Saxony-Anhalt before Sunday's state elections, while AfD remains a clear favorite according to polls. In Magdeburg, approximately twelve events were registered according to police, with an overall expected attendance of several thousand people. svet.sme.sk ↗
The German president also made an appeal before the elections calling for the protection of democracy. Political attention is focused primarily on the possibility that AfD will achieve a historic result in the state. The latest polls attribute approximately 41 to 43 percent of votes to the party, which would make it clearly the strongest party. kultura.pravda.sk ↗
The campaign is accompanied by protest actions as well. In Magdeburg, a counter-demonstration with roughly a hundred participants was registered ahead of a planned AfD family event. In Tangermünde, the hometown of AfD leader Ulrich Siegmund, an action directed against AfD and BSW also appeared.
The current state premier and CDU leader Sven Schulze refuses a coalition with AfD as well as with the Left Party, but discussions about post-election possibilities have already begun. CDU politician Sepp Müller stated that in the event of a clear AfD victory, a mandate to form a government would arise for Ulrich Siegmund. Brandenburg's premier Dietmar Woidke, on the other hand, expressed the conviction that AfD will not gain an absolute majority. n-tv ↗
The election result could influence not only the composition of the government in Saxony-Anhalt, but also the further strategy of all-German parties towards AfD and pressure on Chancellor Friedrich Merz's cabinet. SITA ↗
