German voters head to the polls this month for an election that will determine who the country’s new chancellor will be. The Feb. 23 poll is a snap election, following the collapse of center-left Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s coalition government last year.

That's not what opinion polls are saying. Wikipedia has a nice graph showing the results over time.

Basically the only significant change in the last month is Die Linke finally having figured out how to deal with Sara Wagenknecht's strasserist party.

Jesus fuck, the second most popular party? And climbing?

If by climbing you mean always within the error margin of 20% for the last 3 months, yes. If you have reasonable definition of climbing, no.

iirc Gregor Gysi (prominent Linke politician) predicted BSW would lose support over time and was annoyed at the election being held early.
