Sachsen-Anhalt: Sie feiern ihn wie den Messias – wie die CDU gegen AfD-Kandidat Siegmund ankämpft
In Sachsen-Anhalt droht die erste AfD‑Regierung. CDU-Spitzenkandidat Schulze versucht, das Schlimmste zu verhindern. Und Kanzler Merz? Hilft am meisten, indem er fernbleibt.
In Sachsen-Anhalt, Sven Schulze, the CDU leading candidate, finds himself facing challenges as the AfD's Ulrich Siegmund garners unprecedented support. According to recent polls, Siegmund appears poised to secure more than 40% of the vote and potentially win an absolute majority, potentially leading the region. The CDU's share is 22%, while the SPD and liberal/ Green parties lag far behind at 8%.
The AfD's success may prompt a significant political shift, as the party could gain the power to govern the state without a coalition partner. The upcoming election in Sachsen-Anhalt could prove to be a turning point, potentially transforming the region into a political laboratory. This is not only crucial for the CDU's future but could also influence the entire German government.
