The upcoming state election in Brandenburg poses a significant challenge for the Brandenburg SPD, as polls show the possibility of the AfD becoming the strongest party for the first time. While the SPD is predicted to receive more than 20% in the polls, a single-digit result is not expected.
However, if the SPD doesn't come in first, it would be a historical defeat for the party. The fate of Minister-President Woidke is also at stake, as he has announced that he will step down if the SPD does not come out on top.
Even if the AfD becomes the strongest party, it is still realistic for the SPD to remain in power as other parties have ruled out forming a coalition with the AfD, which is currently under observation by the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution.
The CDU and the Greens also face challenges, with the CDU falling behind the SPD in the polls and the Greens and the Left potentially losing seats in the state parliament. The outcome of the election will have implications not only for the state of Brandenburg but also for the political landscape in Germany in the lead-up to the federal election next year.
