According to a recent Forsa poll, the Union can potentially regain some of the momentum it lost after the coalition’s joint decisions in the Bundestag, with the AfD, by gaining a point in the voter’s goodwill.
In a survey conducted for RTL and ntv, the Union now stands at 29 percent, a one-point increase from the previous poll. The Left Party, on the other hand, gains a point and reaches six percent, surpassing the five percent threshold.
The Greens and other parties, however, lose one point each, with the Greens now at 14 percent and the other parties at seven percent. The values for the SPD, AfD, FDP and BSW remain unchanged, at 16, 20, 4 and 4 percent, respectively. The Liberal Party and the “Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance” would not have a seat in the next Bundestag according to the current poll.
The share of non-voters and the undecided remains roughly the same as in the previous Bundestag election, at around 23 percent, mirroring the 23.4 percent of non-voters in the last election.
The data was collected by the market and opinion research institute Forsa between February 4 and 10, with a sample of 2,502 respondents.
