- Before the election, Siegmund promised a stable, reliable government and would become minister-president only if the AfD could govern alone.
- After 43.8 percent and 39 seats, Siegmund now says the AfD can govern with a one-seat majority.
- The December election announced by Siegmund could leave him dependent on one to three CDU defectors or members of Bündnis Sahra Wagenknecht.
- Even as the first AfD minister-president, his government would need votes from other parliamentary groups to pass laws.
Of course we will govern even with one more vote.— Ulrich Siegmund, AfD politician in Saxony-Anhalt, after the election; in response to not achieving an absolute majority, signaling willingness to govern with a slim margin.

- Under the available plans, the proposed levy is intended to cover both sugary and artificially sweetened drinks, including non-alcoholic beer.
- Kubicki warns that price increases of more than 30 percent would particularly affect people on lower incomes and the hospitality sector.
- He calls the planned tax a breach of election promises by Friedrich Merz and Markus Söder that the coalition would not raise taxes.
- For health protection, Kubicki favors education instead of a prevention fund and says 650 million euros would suffice for a health objective, while revenue in his view is intended to reach two billion euros or more.
What moves me most is the fact that one cannot trust this government.— Wolfgang Kubicki, FDP leader, in a WELT interview about the sugar tax
