Ahead of the state election in Saxony-Anhalt, where the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) is polling at over 40 percent, the activist group Campact has launched a campaign urging voters to support the Social Democratic Party (SPD) and the Greens. The goal is to prevent the AfD from forming a single-party government. WELT reporter Lutz Stordel covers the initiative, which highlights the strategic dilemma of tactical voting in a polarized political landscape. The campaign reflects growing concern over the AfD's potential to win a majority, which would be a historic first for the party in a German state election.
