The far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party is expected to secure a significant victory in the Brandenburg state election, marking another success in Germany's eastern regions. The party has gained momentum by capitalizing on dissatisfaction with Chancellor Olaf Scholz's coalition government, particularly in traditionally left-leaning areas. This election could further solidify the AfD's influence in the former communist states, where anti-immigration and nationalist sentiments have been growing. The result may pose a challenge to the Social Democrats, who have historically dominated the region.
