The new party “Alliance Sahra Wagenknecht” could expect seven percent of the vote if elected next Sunday. The FDP makes it back to the Bundestag. The party landscape is being shaken up considerably.
A few days after its founding, the BSW party can already hope to enter the Bundestag. This is reported by “Bild”, citing an election survey by the Insa Institute. After that, the BSW reaches seven percent from a standing start. At the same time, the SPD gained one percentage point and reached 14.5 percent. The Left Party gains half a point, reaches 3.5 percent, but fails again at the five percent hurdle. The CDU/CSU (30 percent) and AfD (21 percent) each lost half a percentage point. The Greens (12.5 percent), FDP (five percent) and Free Voters (2.5 percent) maintain their values from the previous week.
With a total of 32 percent, the traffic light coalition clearly falls short of a parliamentary majority. The black-green and black-red coalitions also do not have a majority of seats in the Bundestag. Politically and mathematically possible are a Kenya coalition of CDU/CSU, SPD and Greens with a total of 57 percent, a Jamaica coalition of CDU/CSU, Greens and FDP with a total of 47.5 percent and a Germany coalition of CDU/CSU, SPD and FDP with a total of 49.5 percent.

Insa boss Hermann Binkert said: “No government can be formed without and against the Union. Because the Wagenknecht party jumps the five percent hurdle, only four party alliances are possible – the two Union parties plus two other parties. If the Sahra Wagenknecht alliance were integrated into a government coalition, further coalition options would arise.
