According to a recent election survey conducted by the Institute Insa for “Bild am Sonntag,” the fundamental agreement reached on pension reform has not yet translated into a change in voter sentiment. The Social Democrats (SPD) are losing ground, dropping another percentage point to 12%. This represents a significant decline of over four percentage points compared to the federal election, where the party had previously garnered 16.4 percent. Meanwhile, the Union remains stagnant in the poll at 22 percent.
If a federal election were to take place this coming Sunday, the Alternative for Germany (AfD) would maintain its current strong showing of 29 percent, making it the clear dominant political force. The Greens are holding steady at 13 percent, and the Left party remains at 10 percent. Although the Free Democratic Party (FDP) manages to increase its share by one percentage point to 4 percent, this is still not enough for them to regain a seat in the Bundestag. Similarly, the BSW (Bündnis Sahra Wagenknecht) fails to meet the 5-percent electoral threshold, remaining at 3 percent. The poll, tracking the “Sunday Trend,” was commissioned by “Bild am Sonntag” and surveyed 1,204 people through Insa between June 22nd and 26th.
