CDU and CSU Regain Voter Trust, but Incumbent Coalition Still Lacks Majority

German parties’ popularity sees a slight uptick, with CDU and CSU climbing to 29 percent in a recent poll, matching their February election results. However, the current coalition would still lack a majority if a federal election were held this Sunday, as the SPD remains at 15 percent. The AfD, the second-strongest force, has lost one point, now at 22 percent, while the Left Party has also dropped a point, to 10 percent. The Greens, BSW and FDP, as well as the Others, have maintained their respective standings.

Opinions on the US attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities are divided, with a slight majority of 47 percent disapproving and 42 percent in favor. Notably, Union supporters are more likely to view the attack as justified, while those affiliated with the Left Party and BSW are more critical of the US action.
