Agreed :yep:

It is being reported that the far-right (AfD) are on course to win according to exit polls.

Here they have said:

They expect to get around 30-35 % of the votes, which is not enough to create a government and the other parties would gladly coop in order to prevent AfD from getting influence(Can have forgot or added some word, which wasn't said)

Germany's anti-immigration party Alternative for Germany is on course for victory in the eastern state of Thuringia, according to an exit poll.

The AfD is set to win 30.5% of the vote, says the exit poll for public broadcaster ARD, six points ahead of the conservative CDU, and far in front of Germany's three governing parties.

If confirmed, it would give the far right its first vote win in a state parliament since World War Two, although it is unlikely to be able to form a government in Thuringia.

Some five million Germans were eligible to vote in two state elections in the east on Sunday. The AfD is also close behind the conservative CDU in the election for a state parliament in Saxony.

The ARD exit poll gives the CDU 31.5% and the AfD 30% in Saxony, again far ahead of the three parties running the national government.

The AfD's top candidate in Thuringia, Björn Höcke, is a highly controversial figure in Germany.

His party has been designated as right-wing extremist and he has been fined for using a Nazi slogan, although the former history teacher denies knowingly doing so.

Oh but I still can :O:

The AfD is more likely to gain a third of the seats. That is enough for a Sperrminorität, a blocking minority. Indeed, in Saxony and Thuringia, a two-thirds majority is needed for all kinds of appointments, from judges to the court of auditors. The fear is that the AfD will block such decisions unless concessions are made on other dossiers. It also makes national politics anxious about these elections. For weeks now, political leaders have been warning of the AfD's danger. German business is also getting involved in the campaign: big names like Miele, Stihl and Edeka are openly taking a stand against the party. Ungovernability of Saxony and Thuringia lurks. For a majority, BSW will be crucial, but that party has made a rejection of Ukraine policy by the new government a breaking point. State parties are not about foreign policy, but a pro-Russian state government will symbolically be a big step and will be welcomed by Moscow. Let's hope all other parties consistently maintain a cordon sanitaire around the AfD.

Currently it looks that the CDU needs the suzrvivors of the SPD, BSW (newly formed pro-Putin Marxist Bündnis Sarah Wagenknecht) and/or former SED remains Die Linke to form a government.

I mentiined htis in ealrie rposts. Even the CDU as a victor in election will end up if strictly left-leaning governments. Vote strictly anti-left - and you nevertheless get a left goverment, it does not matter.

Die Linke also doe snit make it over the 5% hurdle, but due to the German election system will enter pairliament as full faction if the yget two diretc mandates.

Already at school I was at war with the German elections ystem. Teachers failed miserably to bring me into line woith it, I'm proud to say. Maybe there cnanit be a loefect system, but the German one of which germans are especially poriud in my understanding is a especially distorted - and distoritng - exmaple of an election system. Differences between states' individual election laws do exist, but they are minor and do not really change the general "verdict".

Its all a - left-leaning - freak show.

If the CDU accepts an alliance with SPD and BSW or Die Linke only to prevent AfD, next elections will become even worse.

One last election of three is still coming later this autumn, in Brandenburg. AfD leads polls there with ~ 23%, before CDU and SPD with 19% each, BSW 16%, Greens 7%. So here again a CDU winner of the lecitons would be forced to make strictly left-leaning coalitions if they rule out AfD.

Further conclusions form today'S twpo elections: BSW did not steal votes as much from AfD than I expected. Both parties with their core issues chase at will the other parties who can only react. AfD has taken over frpm Die Linke to be the East's new popular party. The national coalition government is practically sunk.


In the medium to long run I expect to see an authoritarian government in Germany (and in the whole EU, as I say since long).

I agree with your EU point - they are hungry for more power and that is why I would not give EU own army.
One "brotherly help"* in 1968 was enough.
