North Rhine-Westphalia: CDU and Greens assert themselves: 49 percent are satisfied with Wüst

Dortmund (dpa / lnw) - Eight and a half months after the state elections in North Rhine-Westphalia, the new government alliance of the CDU and the Greens would assert itself according to a survey and achieve almost the same results as in 2022. The SPD, on the other hand, would continue to fall in favor with voters. This is the result of a survey published on Friday by the opinion research institute Forsa for SAT.1 NRW.

Almost half of all those eligible to vote (49 percent) are satisfied with the work of Prime Minister Hendrik Wüst (CDU), 37 percent are not. Wüst achieves high levels of satisfaction in his own party (81 percent), but the majority of supporters of the Greens, SPD and FDP are also satisfied with the work of the CDU head of government. In the case of the SPD, that's even 47 percent.

If the NRW state parliament were re-elected now, the CDU would get 36 percent, the Greens would end up with 18 percent. The results differ from the election results in May by only a few tenths (CDU: 35.7 percent, Greens: 18.2 percent). The SPD, on the other hand, would slip by almost five percentage points to 22 percent and once again undercut its historically worst NRW state election result of 2022 (26.7 percent).

The AFD could improve to 8 percent (5.4 percent), while the FDP would just clear the five percent hurdle with 5 percent. The left would not get into the state parliament again with 3 percent.
