About this episode

AfD Hits Record In West German State, As Voters Dissatisfied With Current Government Surge Authored by Remix News Staff via Remix News, AfD has reached another milestone, this time in the German state of Hesse. The latest "Hessentrend" poll shows the party, co-chaired by Alice Weidel, at a record 23 percent, just two points behind the CDU/CSU, after the latter suffered a seven-point drop to 25 percent. This is the lowest result the CDU has ever achieved in this survey for Hesse, notes Nius. The Greens, meanwhile, reached 16 percent, the SPD 15 percent, and the Left Party 7 percent, the FDP 4 percent, and the Free Voters 3 percent, making a black-red coalition no longer possible. Weidel pointed out the news on her X page, posting: "Even in the West, more and more citizens are realizing that the firewall-CDU is governing the country ever deeper into the abyss with left-wing policies. A turnaround can only come with the AfD." Hessen: CDU stürzt ab; AfD legt zu. Auch im Westen merken immer mehr Bürger, dass die Brandmauer-CDU das Land mit linker Politik immer weiter in den Abgrund regiert. Eine Kehrtwende kann es nur mit der AfD geben. https://t.co/ujS6Ic9ZLR — Alice
