Alternative für Deutschland keeps dominating national polls, surging to 29% support in the most recent one. According to a new INSA survey commissioned by Bild, the AfD holds a commanding seven-point lead over the center-right CDU/CSU bloc, which is polling at 22%.
The Greens follow at 14%, with the Social Democrats (SPD) at 12% and the far-left Die Linke returning to relevance at 11%. Strikingly, the combined support for the former traffic light coalition (SPD, Greens, FDP) now merely equals the AfD’s share alone.
Conversely, the liberal FDP faces an existential crisis as they elect new leadership. Polling at around 3%—alongside the left-wing nationalist BSW—the FDP remains far below the 5% parliamentary threshold. Having failed to surpass 5% in major polls since the February 2025 federal election, and recently losing seats in traditional strongholds like Hesse and Baden-Württemberg, a simple rebranding may not be enough to save the party.
