Germany's Saxony-Anhalt state election, AfD overwhelming first place... Possibility of forming a coalition government

According to exit polls by public broadcasters ARD and ZDF in the German state election in Saxony-Anhalt on the 6th, the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) was predicted to win a landslide victory with 44-45% of the vote. AfD failed to secure a majority of seats alone, but the radical left-wing Saarwagenknecht (BSW) won more than 5% of the votes, so it is expected that it will be possible to form a coalition government if it enters the National Assembly.
