德国萨克森-安哈尔特州长舒尔茨对阵极右翼AfD

德国萨克森-安哈尔特州将于9月6日举行州议会选举，州长斯文·舒尔茨领导的中间偏右基督教民主联盟（CDU）面临极右政党德国选择党（AfD）的强劲挑战。1根据民调数据，AfD的支持率超过40%，而CDU约为23%。1

舒尔茨现年47岁，是德国16个州长中最年轻的。1他将接替任职近15年、现年71岁的前任州长雷纳·哈泽霍夫。1

面对民调劣势，舒尔茨表示决心争取每一位选民的支持。1他强调"远未决定"，同时承诺将采取与多个政党联合执政的方式来阻止AfD单独组阁。1舒尔茨在竞选中明确表示，自己的使命不是向这个拥有200万人口的州推销柏林政府的政策，而是要"把萨克森-安哈尔特州的议题带到柏林"。1

Sven Schulze, the 47-year-old governor of Saxony-Anhalt and Germany's youngest state leader, is preparing for a competitive election battle against the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party 1. The state parliament election is scheduled for September 6, 2026 1. Schulze, who assumed office in late January 2026 after succeeding Reiner Haseloff—who had served nearly 15 years—leads the center-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU) 1.

Current polling shows a significant challenge ahead for Schulze's CDU, which stands at approximately 23 percent support, trailing the AfD's commanding lead of over 40 percent 1. Rather than risk an AfD-led government, Schulze's strategy focuses on building a coalition with multiple parties to prevent the far-right party from governing alone 1. In a statement to media on August 7, 2026, Schulze declared, "We are now fighting for every single voter" 1. He further outlined his political philosophy, stating, "I am not here to sell the Berlin government's ideas to Saxony-Anhalt, but to bring Saxony-Anhalt's issues to Berlin" 1. The state has a population of two million 1.
