German state elections. Both the right-wing populist AfD and the left-wing party Die Linke look set for a successful election in the German federal states of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and Berlin, respectively. This is according to exit polls. The election comes two weeks after AfD's historic successes in the state of Saxony-Anhalt, where the right-nationalist party achieved its highest ever election result with 43.8 percent of the vote.

Left-wing leader Elif Eralp therefore looks set to potentially become Berlin's first female mayor with an immigrant background. Her and the party's successes have been compared to New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

AfD continues its growth trend. The party is getting 37 percent of the votes in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern according to an exit poll, making it the largest party there. – The election result is a disaster, says Germany's Chancellor Friedrich Merz according to Reuters. See the report on SVT News.
