Saxony-Anhalt's Wahl-O-Mat launches as AfD seeks absolute majority

spiegel.de (German)

Saxony-Anhalt's Wahl-O-Mat has launched ahead of the state election, where the AfD could win an absolute majority for the first time and several parties risk leaving parliament. Even without an AfD majority, forming a governing majority against the right-wing extremists would be difficult. Besides the CDU, only the Left, led by Eva von Angern, polls in double digits. Premier Schulze needs Left support; the CDU forbids cooperation with both. The Wahl-O-Mat presents 38 theses, allowing users to agree, disagree, or stay neutral, and weight topics they care about. Theses are developed from party programs by young voters, political scientists, statisticians, and educators.
