Insa survey
Clap for Friedrich Merz: AfD in survey for the first time head with Union head with Union for the first time
A few weeks after the Bundestag election, Union is for the first time in a recent survey with the AfD. Is it due to the current coalition negotiations?
After the Bundestag election, there was still a short thrust for Friedrich Merz ‘Union – since then the poll values have been falling. And the AfD climbs further and further. In a survey of the Institute Insa published on Saturday of “Bild”, there is now afraid of the CDU and CSU politicians: The AfD is lying on par with the Union parties for the first time nationwide.
24 percent of the voters surveyed would therefore vote for the CDU/CSU and AfD after the Union lost two points compared to the previous week, which AfD won. For the first time, the AfD would also be the strongest party in the federal government, if only shared. The SPD remains unchanged at 16 percent in the survey, the Greens come to 11 percent (-1), the left also (+1). All other parties would continue to fail at the five percent hurdle.

Election survey sees the Union crash
For Merz, the result is a disaster. In the election in February he had 28.5 percent for the Union, it was the second worst result of the party alliance in a federal election. The coalition negotiations should be that it loses even further. Merz had gone to the election campaign with hard positions, of which he now has to row back in the discussions with the SPD, for example with regard to debt or migration policy.
The survey crash is still unusual. “There has never been such a loss of approval in the period between the Bundestag election and government formation,” emphasizes Insa boss Hermann Binkert in “Bild”. “Even with the traffic light government, there was an initial euphoria. A black-red government with Friedrich Merz at the top would begin with a survey crisis.”
Difficult coalition
Negotiations for the formation of government are difficult in the actual result of the Bundestag election, with the current you would become more dramatically complicated. With the circumstances of the INSA survey, 43 percent of the vote would be required for a government. Without the votes of the AfD, this would only be achievable in three allies, for example by an alliance of the Union, SPD and the Greens. Alternatively, only one alliance of the Union and AfD – at eye level.
