Germany: Right-wing AfD party set to win state election for first time

SUMMARY

The right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party is set to win its first state election in Thuringia, projected to receive 33.5% of the vote, up from 23.4% in 2019. The center-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU) follows with 24.5%.

In neighboring Saxony, AfD closely trails the CDU with 31.5%.

Despite this success, rival parties will likely exclude AfD from power due to coalition agreements.
