You have to bear in mind that the German election laws are not like in Britain or the US. First it´s a system of proportional representation. We have two votes, one for the constituency. Here the candidate with the majority of votes (needn´t be 50%+) goes to parliament. Then there is the second vote where candidates are elected that are chosen by the parties and the parties alone. The number of the elected party candidates depends on the proportion of second votes for the different parties. All these candidates were NEVER chosen by the people. We have representatives and ministers that NEVER won any election except within their parties!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Furthermore we have the 5% bar. The votes for one of those small parties which don´t make it above 5% are lost. But that doesn´t result in fewer representatives. The more small parties don´t make it above 5%, the greater the system´s parties gains are as the number of the parlamentary seats remains the same. There are some additional curiosities that makes our parliament the biggest only topped by China with a billion inhabitants, compared to our, officially, 82 million. But explaining those would go beyond the scope.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Conclusion: The additional parties will save the system parties for a while. When there were only the AfD, the CDU and the Greens in a parliament the undemocratic system would be exposed even to the normies. Our system is totally controlled by the "democratic" parties as they call themselves. AND it´s not only the US that suffer from rigged election results.
