As state elections in Thuringia and Saxony approach, parties like the AfD, CDU, and alliances for democracy are campaigning for votes. The AfD is leading in Thuringia, while the CDU is in the lead in Saxony, according to polls.

Chancellor Scholz and SPD leader Esken express concern over the weak performance of their party. The popularity of Prime Ministers Ramelow and Kretschmer remains high.

The AfD is categorized as right-wing extremist, and the newly formed BSW party is gaining popularity. Inner-party tensions and scandals have affected the Left, Grüne, and FDP.

Anti-far-right protests have taken place ahead of the elections, and concerns about the rise of right-wing populism and extremism persist. The possible outcome of the elections could have implications for the formation of coalitions and the future of the EU.

The elections are seen as a test for the established parties and a signal against the far right. The focus remains on the AfD and the potential influence of the BSW party.

The campaigns have been heated, with debates on topics such as Ukraine, asylum, and migration. The results of the elections could have significant consequences for the political landscape in Germany.
