The effects of the upcoming state elections on the political landscape

The effects of the upcoming state elections on the political landscape

In September 2024, Germany faces an important political event: the state elections in the federal states of Thuringia, Saxony and Brandenburg. These elections not only have local effects, but can also result in far -reaching consequences for federal politics. Intensive reporting by the ARD will enable citizens to find out more about the election and to form their opinion.

polarization as a central topic

The current political mood in Germany is shaped by a growing polarization. A clear change in the political opinions of people can be observed, especially in the eastern federal states. This development is treated in a new documentary by Jessy Wellmer and Dominic Egizzi, which will be broadcast on ARD on August 26, 2024. In your work, you question the supposed crisis of democracy by capturing the voices of the citizens on the street. The viewers learn how many people feel alienated from politics and are increasingly looking at the established parties.

media platform as a source of information

The ARD has set itself the goal of providing the voters as best as possible. Reporting will extend over different formats: from documentation to discussion groups to current reports. This wide cover is important to offer people in Thuringia, Saxony and Brandenburg a platform to express their concerns and hopes.

the view of the elections

The actual choice will take place on September 1, 2024 when about five million citizens are called to give up their vote. It will be particularly exciting to observe whether the alternative for Germany (AfD) will be the strongest force or whether the incumbent prime minister Bodo Ramelow (Die Linke) in Thuringia and Michael Kretschmer (CDU) in Saxony can continue to lead the government. These questions are not only important for the federal states concerned, but also for the federal political landscape as a whole.

the view beyond the borders

The documentary "Bundesvibe" will address the effects of the state elections on the entire nation from September 5. The focus will be on the major social issues that influence the election figures, such as the continuing energy crisis, the Ukraine conflict and questions of migration. It becomes clear that in small places there are sometimes different perspectives on these topics than in political Berlin.

conclusion: a test for democracy

The state elections in Thuringia, Saxony and Brandenburg are more than just one choice. They are a indicator of the trust of citizens in democracy and established institutions. The information and programs provided by the ARD offer a valuable opportunity for voters to actively contribute to the democratic process and to think critically about their decisions. It remains to be seen how the political landscape will change after September 1st.
