i'm going to michael c. d. u policy in recent polls. what you'll sense right now could be a f d in saxony and be heading cro victory in the selection. well, here are the factors. i mean, there's been quite a few polls and only one really put the a f d for me ahead of angular mac or c d. u party. kind of hot off the conservative c, d, u, candidate of the macros party beat his opponent from the forward. if the hands down when it comes to popularity ratings, but also competence. on the other hand of spectrum, zack's in the on hold is seen is pretty much dry through country and me. and that's how many people here feel. and around a 3rd of people still undecided, so it would be quite a surprise if the a f d came ahead, but mathematically, it's still possible and it could well be seen as a protest vote against the establishment. that's the mix we are in here. my guess would still be that kind of high off his mind to establish himself as such a patron of politics and overarching figure that he will be able to pull it off. but they're still very

still a big political force here, but it was weakened and at the same time, and i'm going to michael's c d u policy led by the incumbent state premier. and by now has a loss so that it can become stronger. so these are 2 factors that huge success. i'm going to michael's political camp and for her want to be successful unless it who lead the potter party as party leader. but also is tons. the candidate in those elections in september, which will determine the future of the entire country. so not very many people who went to the polls. 1.8000000 voters here in saxony and house. but the timing of course, was also essential, as we're just going into the hot phase of the election campaign for mckayla many thought the a s t party could win. what the cd you offered that the a f d couldn't well the short answer would be, i know how's it off? because he actually came from a politician who had a lot of tough was going with the a f d party to someone who is the most recognized politician. and also a very popular politician here in saxony on help. so it's safe to say that the other conclusion from these

without doubt this was a resounding election victory. fungal michael. c. d u party here in the state of facts in the and there are 3 lessons from this for those general elections in september. first of all, the far right a if the party can be beaten and it can be seen in decline even in an eastern stronghold state like saxony on highs. also the c d. u policy can once again gain momentum as it just did in the state, just sacks and the height. and thirdly, i mean last it, the chance the candidate of the conservative party may be seen as a continuity candidate our medical. but he's no obstacle to beating the far right a f d. that's very good news for him. and his conservative c, d u party. the other big question is, what's wrong with the polling? because none of this was conclusively predicted. and the relatively poor showing here of the green party in socks and the on had, may be an indicator that the continuous rise of the greens may not be given after all. to peruse presidential run off. now, an exit poll shows right wing populace keiko with murray with a narr

and i'm gonna michael's c d. u has emerged from this election well ahead of the a f d. yes, saxony and how is a relatively small german state? so why does this regional election matter so much? well 1st of all, it matters a lot because it's in the stronghold of the far right if the policy and there's always the question mark over can the rise of the a, f d b whole to particularly in those eastern stronghold states will be answered tonight is yes, absolutely. because the a f d was weakened. nice id. it's still a big political force here, but it was weekend and at the same time, and i'm going to michael's c d u policy led by the incumbent state premier and has a loss so that it can become stronger. so these are 2 factors that huge success. i'm going to michael's political camp and for her want to be successful unless it who lead the potter party as party leader. but also it's tons the candidate in those elections in september which will determine the future of the entire country. so not very many people who went to the polls. 1.8000000 voters here in saxony and house. but
