Quick Glance: Alice Weidel: Rise to Potential Chancellorship?
- Alice Weidel, the AfD's lead candidate, has gained unprecedented support in the current election campaign, despite other parties categorically rejecting a coalition.
- The AfD has transformed from a chaotic protest party into a well-organized force, potentially winning the Bundestag election in several regions.
- Weidel has fought for her position in the party and employs a strategy that appeals to both radical and moderate factions within the AfD.
- Her aim may be to open the AfD for government participation by distancing herself from extreme elements while simultaneously strengthening her own political stance.
