ZDF-Politbarometer: AfD laut Umfrage wieder deutlicher vor Union

A new ZDF-Politbarometer survey shows the AfD significantly ahead of the Union in the upcoming Bundestag election. According to the poll, the AfD would secure 28 percent of the vote, an increase of two percentage points from the previous week. The Union would drop to 22 percent. The SPD would also lose one percentage point, ending at 13 percent.

The Greens would gain two points, placing them at 15 percent. The Left party would fall by one point to 10 percent. The FDP would remain below the parliamentary threshold at 3 percent. No other parties would come close, together accounting for just 9 percent. The current coalition of the Social Democrats and Greens would still lack a majority.

The survey, conducted between November 10th and 12th, polled 1,297 randomly selected eligible voters via phone and online, representing the entire German electorate. The margin of error is approximately three percentage points for a 40 percent share and two percentage points for a 10 percent share. While all polls carry inherent uncertainties, recent trends such as weakening party affiliations and shortened decision-making periods complicate the weighting of collected data.
