Germany, elections in Thuringia and Saxony

Citizens in the two eastern German states of Thuringia and Saxony are voting today in elections that could lead to a victory for the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. Germany's main opposition party is hoping to prevent the AfD from winning in the two countries, which together have a population of 6.3 million. But the outlook looks bleak for Chancellor Olaf Scholz's three-party ruling coalition, which is grappling with ongoing internal debates while a weakening economy and other problems have fueled discontent among voters. A victory in today's Alternative for Germany election would send a strong signal to the far-right party about a year before the next general election. However, this force would need an ally to govern, and it is very likely that no other force will agree to bring it to power. Despite this, the strengthening of this party would make the formation of new governments in these two countries extremely difficult.
