Election disaster – Saxony result corrected, AfD loses seat

Date:

The returning officer has corrected the preliminary results of the Saxon state elections. The state election authorities announced on Monday morning that an incorrect seat distribution had been published due to a software error.

As a result of the recalculation, the AfD loses its blocking minority in the country.

On Sunday, the AfD achieved a historic result in the state elections in Thuringia as the clearly strongest party and in Saxony as the second strongest party, each with more than 30 percent.

Protests in Hamburg
After the state elections in Saxony and Thuringia, hundreds of people took to the streets in Hamburg on Sunday evening against the AfD. Under the motto “Whether Thuringia or Hamburg: Not a foot for the AfD!” About 750 people set off from the starting point at the Reesendamm Bridge. The demonstrators against right-wing extremism marched to the Hamburg AfD party headquarters on Schmiedestrasse. According to the police, the protest was “fairly relaxed”.
