This result represents the highest level this party has ever recorded in INSA polls, one percentage point higher than the previous week. The conservative CDU, led by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, remained at 24 percent, unchanged from the previous week, while the Greens fell by one point to 12 percent. The Social Democrats (SPD) held steady at 14 percent, and the Left Party remained at 11 percent support. Given that 11 percent of votes would go to parties that fail to cross the electoral threshold, mathematically at least 45 percent of votes among parties entering parliament would be needed to form a governing majority. If other parties continue to refuse cooperation with the AfD, sustainable governing coalitions would be limited to three-party alliances, the poll shows. A coalition of the CDU, SPD, and Greens would have 50 percent, while the CDU, SPD, and Left Party together would have 49 percent. INSA surveyed 1,203 people between April 20 and 24, asking respondents how they would vote if federal elections were held on Sunday.
