Özdemir defies polls with bold bid for Baden-Württemberg’s 2026 election win
Cem Özdemir, the Green Party's lead candidate, is confident about winning the Baden-Württemberg state election in March 2026, despite trailing in polls. He currently leads his CDU rival, Manuel Hagel, in personal approval ratings.
Özdemir aims to prevent left-leaning voters from supporting the Left Party (Die Linke), seeing them as uninterested in governing, taking responsibility, or driving change. He believes the election outcome is still uncertain and wide open.
The leading candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SPD) is Andreas Stoch, the SPD state and parliamentary group leader. Despite the competition, Özdemir remains optimistic about his party's chances.
