The AFD is poised to take power in Magdeburg, marking the first time a far-right party could lead in Germany since Nazism — fueled by years of resentment over 2015’s migrant influx. With over 40% support, they’re no longer just fringe; academics warn traditional exclusion won’t work, and their rise mirrors a continent-wide shift. Across the EU, right-wing parties now dominate or influence half the member states, pushing back against immigration. Voters, especially young ones, prioritize personal security over historical guilt, drawn to the AFD’s anti-immigration message. Meanwhile, migrants fear backlash and possible deportation, some even considering leaving. This local race is a microcosm of Europe’s changing political landscape — from Italy to Finland, immigration is reshaping national identities and redrawing the continent’s map.
