Opinion poll tracker Bundestagswahl 2025 Germany’s federal election

Germany is electing a new parliament on 23 February 2025, and thanks to the wonderful wahlrecht.de website it’s easy to track all the major opinion polls.

The chart below plots all data points for each party from the 9 polling providers (Allensbach, Forsa, FG Wahlen, GMS, Infratest, INSA, Ipsos, Verian, YouGov).

The solid line calculates a 14-day moving average of all the data points within that time span for each party.

The latest 14-day averages are summarised below.

Parties need to get over 5% of the national vote to gain seats in the Bundestag, unless they can win 3 electoral districts outright.

In 2025, the Bundestag will have a maximum of 630 seats, allocated by the Sainte-Laguë/Schepers method. (Don’t ask. It’s complicated.)

The pie chart below shows the seats projected based on the latest 14-day trend figures.
