Anti-euro party makes big leap in Thuringia, Brandenburg state elections
The euroskeptic Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has taken big strides forward in regional elections in two eastern German states. Results are emerging from votes in Thuringia and Brandenburg.
Results of exit polls released just before the close of voting on Sunday showed the Alternative for Germany (AfD), which was founded only last year, had gained 10 percent of the vote in Thuringia and 12 percent of the vote in Brandenburg, meaning it has won a place in the parliaments of both states for the first time.
A fortnight ago the AfD was elected to the regional parliament in another eastern German state, Saxony.
CDU wins in Thuringia
While the governing party of Chancellor Angela Merkel, the Christian Democrats (CDU), won the most votes in Thuringia with 34.5 percent, they may let lose the leadership of the state if their junior coalition partners, the Social Democrats (SPD), switch sides.
Pre-election talk was of the possibility of the Left party, which came second on 28 percent, forming an alliance with the third-placed SPD on 12.5 percent and the Greens, who just made it over the five-percent threshold on 5.5 percent. It would give the Left party its first state premiership, with Bodo Ramelow (pictured above casting his vote).
Status quo in Brandenburg
In Brandenburg, the government looks to remain the same, with the Social Democrats winning 32.5 percent of the vote and likely to continue with the Left party, which won 19-percent, as junior partners.
The CDU came out with 22 percent of the vote.

Re: AfD 12% Brandeburg 10% Thuringia
Iskreno nepratim njemacku politiku al pratim Nostradamusa. Merkelica nece još otic al ce otic kasnije , Njemci ce bit pasivni no ocito se dešavaju promijene i njima je više pun kufer imigranata i ovog liberalizma i ovo je sad pocetak. Iduci izbori ce bit još žešci za ove jer u međuvremenu liberlna vlada nece napravit ništa po pitanju zaustavljanja ilegalne i ostale imigracije u Njemacku.
