AfD launched a campaign in Saxony-Anhalt for the September 6 elections with a goal to become the strongest force and nominate the first state PM, utilizing AI-generated visuals. The campaign is funded with €1.5M, double the 2021 spend, with two-thirds of donations from women. Polls indicate AfD at 41-42% compared to CDU's 24-26%. An absolute majority requires 42-44%.
Review of the claims about the AfD campaign in Saxony-Anhalt shows mixed evidence. There was no evidence found for the €1.5M funding doubling the previous spending, nor for the claim about two-thirds of donations coming from women. Polls indicate significant support for AfD, but they are varied. An absolute majority requiring 42-44% is a common threshold depending on the electoral context.
