A new state parliament will be elected in Saarland next Sunday. According to a recent survey, the SPD is clearly ahead of the CDU. Green FDP and AfD have to worry about entering the state parliament.
A week before the state elections in Saarland, according to another survey, the SPD is clearly ahead of the CDU of the incumbent Prime Minister Tobias Hans.
In the Saarland trend, which the opinion research institute Insa collected for the “Bild am Sonntag”, the Social Democrats with their top candidate Anke Rehlinger came to 39 percent this week. The Union reaches 31 percent. Greens and FDP are each 5 percent, the AfD 6 percent of the vote.
The Left Party could fail to re-enter the state parliament after Oskar Lafontaine left the party, it is at 4 percent. However, it is questionable to what extent Lafontaine’s resignation declaration on March 17th influenced the poll results. The survey was conducted from March 14th to 17th.
In a direct election, according to Insa, 37 percent of Saarlanders would choose the current Economics Minister Rehlinger as Prime Minister, and 29 percent would choose Hans.
A new state parliament will be elected in Saarland on March 27th. The smallest state in Germany has been governed by a grand coalition led by the CDU since 2012. The CDU has been the Prime Minister in the state since 1999.
Also in a ZDF political barometer extra, which was published on Friday, the SPD was clearly ahead of the CDU with 30 percent with 39 percent. An ARD pre-election survey published on Thursday evening (“Saarlandtrend”) saw the SPD at 37 percent and the CDU at 31 percent.
Election polls are generally always subject to uncertainties. Among other things, declining party ties and increasingly short-term voting decisions make it difficult for the opinion research institutes to weight the data collected. In principle, surveys only reflect the opinion at the time of the survey and are not a forecast of the outcome of the election.
