The upcoming state election in Saxony-Anhalt on September 6 is shaping up to be a major challenge for German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and his coalition. Far-right party AfD is leading polls, raising concerns about the federal government's stability. A strong showing by AfD could lead to Merz's resignation or replacement, with potential successors including Hendrik Wüst, Boris Rhein, and Michael Kretschmer. The election could also impact Merz's planned pension reform. Security experts warn of risks if AfD gains power in the state.
