Hypothetical polls

Wahlkreisprognose have made scenario polls in which Wagenknecht runs with a new party. Should we include those in a new section? Gbuvn (talk) 18:18, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wahlkreisprognose is not a pollster; it's a fake-pollster website. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.190.172.14 (talk) 19:14, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

BSW should definetely be removes unless it is a party.--Nillurcheier (talk) 12:43, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

BSW should be moved to hypothetical polls. Even though BSW does already exist as a registered association, pollsters generally ask about a hypothetical party. For example, INSA currently uses the wording "If there was a general election next Sunday and there was a "Sahra Wagenknecht party", how would you vote?" --Gbuvn (talk) 13:23, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is this true? Then it must be removed. It is in the text right now. Braxmate (talk) 18:56, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

By West- and East Germany/Edit-war-like behaviour

Does anybody know why a 5 day old IP-account, with no edits beside this article, just removed an entire section, without any comment?
This seems like edit-warring behaviour to me, which i don't want to engage in.
As stated in my edit-comment, the content of this section was copied from the more comprehensive german version of this article.
A section about West- and East Germany is also present in the english Opinion polling for the 2017 German federal election article,
if the kamikaze editor wants to enforce some kind of common encycopedic convention, shouldn't they delete that section too?

BSW

Where are the pollings with BSW? It must be added for holistic picture of the situation. Braxmate (talk) 08:53, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They're already there, under scenario polls. Gbuvn (talk) 17:34, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

State Election Results in National Polling

Can we please stop adding the results of state elections into the national polling table, they do not belong there, at all! CoaxAndBotany (talk) 23:21, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
