After coming in second in the February 2025 German federal elections, AfD has been making gains in local elections, as well (Euractiv, Deutsche Welle, Wahlrecht.de [in German]). As of the launch of this question, the 2026 Rhineland-Palatinate Landtag elections are scheduled for 22 March 2026 (Bundesrat). In the event of a tie for seats between AfD and another party, the party that received the most votes for the Landtag will be considered to have won more seats.
