There are state elections in Saxony-Anhalt on Sunday. At the moment everything looks like the AfD will be at least the second strongest force. Their top candidate Oliver Kirchner said: “That would be a clear sign for the Bundestag election. That is what we are striving for. And otherwise these parties, which we usually find in the state parliament, I say, also have four or five -Covenant just to prevent us. ” According to current surveys, the CDU is 29 percent and would therefore have to enter into at least a three-way alliance with the Left, the SPD, the Greens or the FDP for a coalition without the AfD, all of which are around 10 percentage points. The AfD is 23. In Saxony-Anhalt it is either or – with the AfD or with many others. In the case of AfD supporters, all other parties would not even come into question: “It starts now with the Corona thing. It goes with all the construction of wind turbines everywhere, destruction of the landscape where animals are destroyed. Yes, it is all possible more expensive Electricity price increase. ” “And of course this whole refuge here from the asylum seekers, that just doesn’t work. I always say that we don’t see each other as a married couple, neither the Christians nor the Catholics understand each other. And now there are completely strangers who are socialized in a very different way People.” “I’m a West German. We’re here on a bus. We’re all West Germans, actually. But in the West they sleep even more than they do here in the East. And we envy the people in the grown-up area that you really recognize that there what’s happening here in this country. ” The other parties had already gained experience in recent years of what parliamentary work with the AfD as an opposition party feels like. The right-wing populist party in a government coalition – that has never happened before. “Well, here in the East we have always followed the course of the clear edge. It was said that we were exaggerating in the parliaments. I cannot say that. You know, when you have the left shouting over the rows of seats:” “You are Nazis”, then the rabble, but not what we did in the Landtag. And we stand for a clear course with clear words, but with the sharpened sword too. And I have to say, do that we’re doing quite well here. And that’s the course that a Mr. Gauland or a Mr. Höcke also follows. ” The election should actually have taken place in March 2021. But the MPs decided to move the date to late summer. They expect a higher turnout in June. Because of the corona pandemic, it is expected that the proportion of postal voters will be large.
