The AfD is at a nationwide poll high and is seeing initial successes at municipal level. In a survey, the majority oppose government participation, but the numbers differ.

Despite good poll numbers for the Three out of four AfD citizens are opposed to the right-wing party coming to power in a coalition. A current Forsa survey for the “Stern” showed that 73 percent of those entitled to vote think it is right that the other parties rule out alliances with the AfD. 22 percent see it differently. Five percent therefore have no opinion.

In East Germany, the result is not quite as clear: there, only 60 percent support the exclusion of coalitions. And at least 34 percent have a different opinion. 95 percent of the AfD voters themselves think that the other parties should accept the rejection of joint governments.

The AfD is nationwide at the survey high – the first effects can be seen: In Thuringia, the nation’s first AfD district administrator Robert Stuhlmann started work on Monday. He was elected in a runoff on June 25, which caused some outrage among the other parties. The Thuringian AfD is classified and observed by the State Office for the Protection of the Constitution as a secured right-wing extremist.

In the neighboring state of Saxony-Anhalt, an AfD candidate was also elected to a municipal office for the first time on Sunday: In the small town of Raguhn-Jeßnitz, 42-year-old Hannes Loth won the election for full-time mayor.
