Final poll shows far-right AfD gaining support ahead of Germany's pivotal election

Germany is set to vote tomorrow in a pivotal election following a vote of no confidence against Chancellor Olaf Scholz. Final polls indicate the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party is expected to gain significant support, reaching 20.6%. Friedrich Merz of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) is predicted to lead with 29.7% of the vote. He has promised to strengthen Germany's role in Europe. Meanwhile, the ruling Social Democratic Party (SPD) and the Greens are projected to lose votes. The rise of the AfD has sparked protests and concerns about extremism. All mainstream parties have ruled out forming a coalition with the AfD, which remains under surveillance for suspected extremist ties.
