Germans vote in state elections set to hand victory to far right • FRANCE 24 English
Voters in two former East German states began casting ballots Sunday in elections expected to deal a blow to Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s government and deliver big gains for the far-right AfD. Opinion polls have the anti-immigration Alternative for Germany (AfD) ahead in Thuringia and a close second in Saxony, while also predicting a strong showing for the upstart far-left BSW.

If you're against the wokes you're far right…yeah🤦🏻♂️
Good!
Let them win may be they have the answers, It always seems easy when you are not in the chair, soon we will be blaming them for the chaos
Far ✅
It's time for a change from the neo-liberal-white guilt-technocrat
If everybody is so scared, who votes for AfD and how they are expected to get the majority?
People from both left and right keep telling them what are the problems, and they still don’t want to listen.
This will endanger minorities in Europe
Small hat nose mafia upset they want to see europe fall to islam
No more support for Olaf governament
Democracy, except when it doesn't go your way.
Far right surge happening everywhere in Europe for years now. Simple fact of life.
Scary
The end of neo liberals is near . Open border is just back fairing. EU and neo librals runed europe in one decade they really thought doctors and engineers coming as migrants illegally crossing borders 😂 99 present came there for free stuffs and benefits.
They don't have a majority
Far right means normal.
Important to keep in mind that France24 is far-left when reading this headline.
Even USA has avoid the similar to Past far right, here goes Germany another world war 3.
I don't care about sides, but think for a minute, if people want a change is because the current status isn't working. Cheers from Brazil.
Good to see this happen, the public now waking up to political correctness ideologies that influencing Western countries for so long. The minorities can go back to their own countries to enjoy that majority. There have been so many people trying to turn a Western country into something else in the past 30 years.
Another wave of the far right across western democracies. When will humanity learn this shift in ideology does not fix whatever is broken.
I bet you can't wait for the 2025 nightmare election to see where you stand, this time. Last time, not so good.
