For Saxony, AfD finished 2nd place, 27.5 percent. As for seats...they are limited to 30 because of screwed-up paperwork submitted several months ago.

For Brandenburg, AfD finished 2nd place, 22.5 percent.

The real losers in both elections: (1) Linke Party (former communist party)...took hefty losses from last election, (2) SPD Party (left of center), and CDU Party (Merkel’s right of center group).

There’s a 7-week pause before the 3rd state election of Germany occurs, in Thuringia (another eastern state). The AfD is polled to go between 20 to 25 percent. Oddly, the Linke Party is polled to do well, and win (up around 27-to-28 percent).

The basic conclusion? The AfD has yet to peak out, and the two major parties of Germany (CDU-SPD) are losing votes still to the AfD.
