GERMANY-POLITICS-VOTE-STATE-PARLIAMENT: Newly elected state parliament president Tobias Rausch of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party sits at the lectern after his election during the first constituent session of the state parliament of Saxony-Anhalt in Magdeburg, eastern Germany, on October 6, 2026. Newly elected state lawmakers gather for the first time in the parliament building in the state capital Magdeburg to elect a speaker, with a candidate of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) expected to win. The AfD is poised to preside over a state assembly for the first time following its landslide election victory in the eastern state of Saxony-Anhalt. The AfD took nearly 44 percent of the vote in the September 2026 state election. (Photo by Jan Woitas / POOL / AFP)
