A poll carried out by Forsa and published by Stern magazine on Wednesday showed that if federal elections were to be held on Sunday, 13 percent of Germans would vote for the AfD. That was a one percent loss since a Forsa poll carried out last week.“The refugee debate has taken a backseat in public discourse,” Forsa director Manfred Güllner said. “The AfD isn’t growing anymore.”The result supports the conclusion of other recent polling that the AfD’s popularity is currently waning. An Insa poll for Bild showed a drop of half a point to 15 percent, while an Emnid poll for Bild am Sonntag showed a drop to 12 percent from 14 percent.
