1:36:18Now PlayingVoter surveys gauging support for Germany’s political parties have proved relatively accurate in past elections and barely budged over the three-month campaign leading into Sunday’s ballot. Pollsters are still nervous there might be a surprise. A number of unpredictable factors are at play this time that could impact the outcome, according to officials from polling institutes interviewed by Bloomberg. Tactical voting might shift results in a similar way to last year’s regional elections, where some centrist voters switched to the likely winner in a bid to counter the far-right Alternative for Germany.
