Erschreckend, ich will das nicht. Wir hatten das alles schonmal, und wir sehen doch aktuell and den USA was passiert wenn wir das wieder zulassen. Muss dass denn alles umbedingt nochmal sein?

Not exactly beautiful. More like an ugly brown mess.
The visualisation is okay though.
You can tell that the city states are far less likely to vote AfD. If you broke it down to the district level and below, you would find the AfD strongest in rural communities that demographically tended towards old and without much future prospects.
There is also a worrying trend of the AfD also being popular with younger male voters everywhere.

This is what happens when propaganda and misinformation are not countered and one side of the country is made to feel ignored and left behind. People resort to extremes.

Maybe they should rebuild the Berlin wall

Lol this is definitely also an r/PhantomBorders candidate
Interestingly,25 years ago the map was similarly divided, only that back then it was the extreme left party (PDS, now Die Linke) that was very strong in the East.Â
In 2001, 47 percent of East Berliners voted PDS in the Berlin elections.Â

The worrying part is that also in the rich states they are close to 20%.

Scary how many voted for them in eastern germany. I guess that one area there with the lower percentage is Berlin. Can somebody give me a reason for the higher numbers? Feels weird that eastern germany would want the far right since they were so majorly impacted back in the day. Maybe there is a logical reason for it but as a Finn I am not so well versed in German politics.

This can be interpreted in many ways.
One of the interpretations is, like other Eastern European countries, East Gernany had a hands-on experience with horrors of communism, and now have the need to overcompensate and are far likelier to fall for right-wing parties and are more prone to be lenient towards their shortcomings. They vote right *despite* their connection to Russia.
Other interpretation is, that the Eastern influence stayed and is either passed from older generations, or directly targeted by Russian propaganda regime now. So such people under its influence are manipulated into voting AfD *because* of their connection to Russia.
And there are other factors. But if you sum them up (I guess each is correct in part) you get the success of AfD.

Let me guess, East Germany’s education level is worse than the rest of Germany?
