AfD leads national polling as CDU loses ground in NRW

Recent Insa Institute polling indicates significant shifts in the German political landscape. Nationally, the AfD has emerged as the strongest force with 29 percent support, despite a slight one-point decrease from the previous week. The CDU/CSU Union has seen a decline, falling to 18 percent. Other national figures include the Greens at 14 percent, the SPD at 13 percent, Die Linke at 11 percent, and the BSW at 4 percent. The FDP remains at 4 percent, failing to meet the five-percent threshold.

In North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), the CDU is experiencing a notable downturn, dropping to 26 percent—an eight-point decrease compared to May surveys. This decline has placed the AfD in second place with 21 percent, narrowing the gap between the two parties to five percentage points. The SPD maintains 18 percent, while the Greens have risen to 16 percent. Die Linke holds 10 percent, and the FDP remains at 4 percent, below the required threshold for parliamentary entry.
