Still in shock over the far-right's victory in the eastern state of Saxony-Anhalt two weeks ago, Germany is taking the temperature of the ultra-right wave this Sunday in the elections in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and also in Berlin. The far-right party Alternative for Germany (AfD) seeks to leverage the momentum of the victory in Saxony-Anhalt to try to repeat it in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, the second eastern state to head to the polls. And it could achieve it, although it is far from an absolute majority and has few options to govern. Polls give the AfD 37% of the votes, followed very closely by the Social Democrats, now in government, with 35%.
