Recent polls ahead of Berlin’s September 20 state election show Die Linke consistently ahead of the AfD, with the party at 19–22% versus the AfD’s 17–18% in surveys from Forsa, INSA, and Infratest dimap conducted in July and August. Linke’s gains reflect membership growth to become Berlin’s largest party, momentum from its 2025 federal results in the capital, and support for top candidate Elif Eralp. The AfD has expanded nationally amid immigration and economic concerns but trails in the latest Berlin-specific data. CDU weakness after leadership changes has also redistributed support toward Linke without boosting the AfD. Traders view these trends as durable enough to place an 81% implied probability on Linke finishing ahead.
