Poll puts Union at 19%, seven points behind AfD

Original: Forsa v. heute (12. Okt.) #Union bei 19% und damit 7 Prozentpunkte (PP) hinter der AfD (26%) und nur 2 PP vor den #Grüne

A new Forsa poll dated 12 October puts Germany's Union at 19% support, seven percentage points behind the AfD on 26% and only two points ahead of the Greens at 17%. The Left party gains one point to reach 12%, despite a right-wing conservative campaign against it. Commenters note the figures would produce a complicated coalition picture if replicated in a federal election.

Why now: The poll shows the mainstream conservative party falling to historic lows while the AfD leads, which is striking news in German politics.
