Hans-Christoph Berndt, the AfD's lead candidate in Brandenburg, remarked on the party's rising popularity among young voters, stating, "This popularity among young people proves that we are the future." He emphasized that around 32% of voters aged 16 to 24 chose the AfD in the recent elections, marking a significant trend for the party's influence among younger demographics. This reflects a broader shift in political alignment, with the AfD positioning itself as a compelling option for the youth.
Bernd Baumann, the leader of the AfD's parliamentary group, termed the electoral results a "milestone" for the party, indicating that it is making strides in shaping the political agenda in Germany. Baumann noted that the center-left Social Democrats (SPD) had a narrow victory, implying that their success was influenced by adopting core AfD policies, particularly on issues like mass deportation, which underscores the resonating impact of the AfD’s message within the political landscape.
