People split over German AfD party's electoral success

Residents in the German city of Erfurt, in the state of Thuringia, are mixed in their reaction to the far-right AfD's success in a regional election.

On Sunday 1 September, the party came out on top in the former East German state, securing around 33 percent of the vote.

In the nearby state of Saxony, the AfD came a close second, just missing out to the conservative CDU party.
