- Just 1.1 points of difference. The Social Democrats who rule in Germany in coalition have won the elections in the Branderburg region of Germany. With the support of 30.7% of the scrutinized votes in the Basque regional elections. Second, the extreme right-wing party Alternative (AfD) has remained with 29.6% of the votes. The Social Democrats have been able to breathe a little in these elections on 22 September, following the results of the presidential elections on 2 September last. Then, in the region of Thuringia, Germany imposed itself on Alternative and in Saxony, the extreme right was left in second place, just behind the Christian Democrats.
The Branderburg region is the bastion of the SPD, the Social Democratic Party which is currently governing in Germany. Since 1990, social democracy has been governing continuously. He has barely managed to defeat AfD, the far-right Alternative Party for Nazi Germany, in these elections, as Merkel has reported. The SPD has gone up four points, and AfD, six.
Thirdly, there is the new leftist formation, the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW), with 13.1% of the votes, followed by the demo-Christian CDU, with 12.1%.
The Greens and Liberals, who govern in coalition with the SPD in the German Government, have also achieved poor results. The Greens seem to be up to 5% and will have parliamentary representation. Liberals have not managed to exceed 5%, so they will not have a representative.
