Partidul Alternativa pentru Germania (AfD, extrema dreaptă) are șanse să ajungă la putere în landul Saxonia-Anhalt cu ajutorul stângii naționaliste
Ulrich Siegmund, leader of AfD in East Germany, may become premier with support from the nationalist left party BSW. Despite other parties ruling out coalitions with AfD, BSW is willing to assist Siegmund in the election process. AfD achieved a historic result, securing 39 out of 82 seats in the regional parliament, while BSW holds the balance of power with 5 seats. This potential alliance marks a significant shift in German politics, as it would be the first time AfD gains power in a federal state, allowing them representation in the Bundesrat. BSW, while socialist economically, shares AfD's stance on immigration, appealing to a similar voter base.
