The results of the early elections in Germany do not leave large margins of interpretation: the Friedrich Merz CDU won with 28.6 percent of the votes, followed by theAFD with 20.8 percent of preferences. A result not sufficient to govern – a few solons managed to talk about “flop” – but equally significant: Alice Weidel’s ultra -decay doubled the votes compared to the last electoral round, an incredible 10.4 percent more than the 2021.
Elections with a record turnout – 84 percent – but despite this, the AFD can be said to be more than satisfied with the booty. The leader Weidel was the protagonist of a radical electoral campaign and the support of the United States with Elon Musk’s endorsement and JD Vance’s thrust should not be forgotten. In addition, the ultra -prominent topics are the most sensitive for German citizens, from the economy to immigration, also thanks to the terrorist attacks recorded in recent months. The last Friday evening, an attack with an anti -Semitic knife. Understandable the satisfaction Of the Cancelliere candidate: “A historical result, we have doubled our votes. We are ready to govern, our hands are tense. “
But, as we said, despite 20 percent, the AFD will have no government role. The health cordon that isolates the party will not be abolished and Merz has already made it known to be ready to deal with the SPD. And there are those who think that now the time of the AFD has passed, at the next electoral round it will be impossible to replicate certain numbers. But it would be A Madorn Error think in this perspective.

In Brandenburg with 32.5%, the second political force is the CDU with 18.1. In Mecklenburg-Vorpommern the Afd gets 35%, second the CDU at 17.8%. In Saxony he stands at 37.3%, second always the CDU with 19.7. In Sachsen-Anhalt, the ultra-tenders reaches 37.1%, with the CDU stopping at 19.2%. And still in Turingia the best result with 38.6%, second the CDU with 18.6%. The CDU was forced to a tragic mea culpa: “It was a shock. In eastern Germany we have a problem for which we must find a solution. Our goal must be to give people to East Germany the feeling that in addition to Afd there is another political force that wants to represent them. And it is the CDU ”the words of the president in Sachsen-Anhalt Sven Schulze. The real sore note, however, is another, that is, growth in western regions. An alarm bell for Cdu & Co., called to give answers to citizens after disastrous years under the leaders Scholz.
In short, giving by won the Afd is a gamble that no one in Germany can afford, also considering the great propaganda machine developed on social networks, where the ultra -tenderest breaks the competition. Merz is notified: it could be the last opportunity for the CDU …
