Berlin Poll Shows CDUSPD Lacking Majority as Linke Closes In and AfD Gains

An rbb–Infratest dimap survey finds CDU 22%, Linke 19%, AfD 16%, Greens 16%, SPD 13%.

Overview

  • The CDU slips three points since June as the AfD rises three and the Greens edge up one in the latest Berlintrend.
  • The current CDU–SPD administration would fall short of a majority, making a Linke-led red–red–green option mathematically feasible.
  • Parties rule out cooperation with the AfD, and the CDU also rejects a coalition with Die Linke, narrowing workable government constellations.
  • Only 21% express satisfaction with the Berlin Senate’s performance, the lowest rating for any state government measured in the survey.
  • Threshold dynamics loom large with BSW at 4% and the FDP below 5%, and party strength splits geographically with the CDU leading in the west and the AfD stronger in the east.
