Parliamentary Gridlock Under Strict Brandmauer Policy
With the Alternative for Germany (AfD) projected at 24.5% polling share (yielding 194 seats in a 630-seat chamber), the establishment "Brandmauer" firewall creates a mathematical impasse. A traditional governing majority requires an unwieldy grand coalition spanning center-right CDU/CSU, Social Democrats (SPD), and Greens, elevating governing friction to 88.4/100.
