57
A poll commissioned by Bild showed that 14% of voters would vote for the Union - the same as for the SPD, which is represented by Chancellor Scholz.
Two more coalition pro-government parties - the Greens and the Free Democrats - would gain 12% and 4%, respectively, in a hypothetical election to the Bundestag.
At the same time, the right-wing Alternative for Germany, which also advocates ending support for Ukraine and accepting Ukrainian refugees, would score 18%.
The next elections to the Bundestag will take place in autumn 2025.

BSW aren't socdems they're somewhere between Strasserists and Nazbols. They want the welfare state, just without the odd minorities
It seems a little ultra to say they are between Strasserism and Nazbol.
IMO they are classic "Christdemokraten" minus the religious invocation, their policy is exactly that of Helmut Kohl in nearly every regard.
What is different is the media and societal context they are embedded in. Large parts of society are reactionary about immigration and the media love themselves a "red/brown" alliance, creating a feedback loop. And that they broke from the left created mechanisms of its own that play a role.
Its still concerning, but remember sending military to Mali and creating Frontex is well within the realm of socdem anti-immigration action.
I am concerned about what they say and some of the support they draw but so far their rhetoric has been qualitatively significantly different to the likes of the AfD (I think?) in that its not ethno-popular/"völkisch"
IMO what they say is well within what socdems say/do. But its not my rabbit hole, if you can educate me otherwise I definitely would want to know (German texts are fine too)
If we're in agreement they're basically socdems ecomoically I point you towards Sarah Wagenknechts fight against cancel culture and the queer friendly policies of the Left party as to where I got somewhere between Strasserists and Nazbols from.
I mean, they're not yet, but they aren't actually anything yet but a canvas to project onto. But a continued existence of this party only ends one way.
The queer.de article has a pretty good summary of how far this goes
