Alexander Jakschik, 44, gauges the current mood by observing his company's canteen in Löbau, Saxony, during lunchtime. The canteen, with its simple tables and chairs, a white refrigerator, and a few microwaves, also features flyers inviting attendees to a "Medieval Frolic" hosted by the Schönbach Carnival Club on August 22nd. However, a far more serious and concerning scenario is unfolding in a neighboring federal state. It is no longer out of the question that the AfD could garner enough votes in the state elections in Saxony-Anhalt on September 6th to be in a position to govern.
