The AfD is currently at 35%, a one-point increase since March, while the SPD has risen to 28%, gaining two points. The Left Party stands at 11%, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) at 10%, and the BSW at 6%, marking a potential entry into the state parliament. The Greens and the Free Democratic Party (FDP) are projected to fall below the five-percent threshold. Political scientist Jochen Müller notes that the SPD’s recent gains contrast with the CDU’s decline, emphasizing the potential impact of voter focus on the AfD and SPD on smaller parties as the election approaches on September 20.
