Doesn't matter. Too many voters got duped by the spoiler party BSW and now Merkel's CDU will be able to lead a government coalition in those states. They'll get the same old leftist, open borders, green new deal establishment they've had before.
This was likely the last chance the AfD had because now the government will ramp up persecution even more, potentially even ban them.
I also think that they will exclude the AfD from a coalition, because the AfD has been demonized far and beyond any European populist party - and it's Germany.
Likely, CDU and SW (if they reach a majority) will have a coalition that will carry out the stuff that the AfD wants to take the wind out of its sails.
Second most likely is that they will say "the people have spoken" and flip-flop on not co-operating with the AfD like the parties in NL did.
