The only new factor that could bring about a structural change in German politics is the rise of the new Alternative for Germany (AfD). Though its share of the popular vote fell just below the 5% threshold required to enter the Bundestag, the party performed surprisingly well.
唯一可能给德国政治带来结构性变化的是新因素是德国新选择党（AfD）的崛起。尽管其选票略低于5%的门槛而没能在联邦议院获得席位，但该党的表现令人意外地出色。如果其领导人能很好地利用这次的成功，AfD将能成为明年春天的欧洲议会选举上的一匹黑马。
