AfD Gains Ground on Union in Latest German Poll

According to the current ZDF Political Barometer, the Alternative for Germany (AfD) is positioned to widen its gap with the CDU and CSU. If a federal election were to take place next Sunday, the research group Wahlen estimates the AfD would reach 28%, marking a one-percentage-point gain. This growth comes as the CDU and CSU are projected to lose one point, settling at 24%.

Meanwhile, the SPD could increase its support by one point, rising to 13%. This puts the Social Democrats back in a position to surpass the Greens, who are predicted to lose two points and will stand at 12%.

The FDP showed a slight increase, while the Left Party held steady at 11%. The remaining parties collectively registered a stable 8% of the vote.
