💨 Abstract

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz's Social Democrats (SPD) narrowly defeated the far-right AfD in the Brandenburg state elections, as per exit polls. The SPD secured 32% of the vote, while the AfD garnered 29%. This victory could provide a brief respite for Scholz amid internal party discussions about his suitability as a chancellor candidate for the 2023 federal elections.
