Far-right wins key German state votes
The far-right "Alternative for Germany" (AfD) party secured first place in the Saxony-Anhalt state elections in eastern Germany, according to initial estimates from German television. The party is expected to win around 39 seats in the regional parliament, although a majority requires 42 seats. This comes after the party's branch, which is far-right, ranked first, surpassing the Christian Democratic Union, which is projected to receive 18.5% of the votes. If these final results are confirmed, the far right will hold a larger influence in the regional parliament, reflecting a rise in right-wing power in the area.
