Union Rises to AfD Parity in New Insa Poll

Union Rises to AfD Parity in New Insa Poll

The latest Insa poll shows that the Union has erased its lag behind the AfD in voter favourability. In the current Sunday trend-collected weekly for the “Bild am Sonntag”-the CDU/CSU are tied for first place with the right‑wing party for the first time since 13 September.

If the next Sunday were a federal election, the data suggest that both the Union and the AfD would each secure 26 % of the vote. The AfD has held steady over the past weeks, while the Union has gained one percentage point.

The SPD also improves. At 16 %-up by one point-it matches the support it had at the end of June 2025. The FDP, however, falls from 4 % to 3 %, putting it further from the 5 % threshold.

All other parties retain their previous week’s numbers: the Greens remain at 11 %, the Left at 10 %, the BSW stays at 4 % (and would still fall short of the threshold), and other parties are at 4 % (down by one point).

In total, Insa surveyed 1,204 individuals between 26 and 30 January 2026 for the Sunday trend.
