    The Alternative for Germany (AfD) has extended its lead over the Union party to a record three percentage points, according to the latest Insa ‘Sonntagstrend’ survey.

    The AfD now stands at 27 percent, gaining one point, while the Union has dropped to 24 percent, losing one point. This marks the largest gap recorded in the Insa ‘Sonntagstrend.’ Other parties remain stable, with the SPD at 14 percent, the Greens at 13 percent, and the FDP at 3 percent. The Left party has gained one point to reach 11 percent, while the BSW has decreased by one point and remains below the threshold for Bundestag representation. Additionally, the ZDF ‘Politbarometer’ indicates the AfD as the leading party, with a slight advantage over the CDU/CSU.
