PoliticsGerman voters head to polls as far-right AfD eyes historic state win

Voters in Saxony-Anhalt are set to cast ballots in an election that could make the Alternative for Germany the first far-right party to govern a German state since World War II. Polls put AfD at 40 percent, ahead of the CDU at 23 percent; it could win an outright majority if smaller parties miss the 5 percent threshold.
