Die Linke secured approximately 25.7 percent of the vote in the September 20, 2026, Berlin Abgeordnetenhaus election, more than doubling its 2023 share and achieving its strongest historical result in the city-state. This outcome, driven by strong support on housing policy and among younger voters, produced a decisive lead over the CDU and other parties while ending the prior CDU-SPD coalition. Provisional and early official tallies have remained consistent above 23 percent, aligning with the market's near-certain pricing on the 23 percent-plus band. Final certification could still incorporate minor adjustments from remaining counts or recounts, though such shifts have not altered the established range in comparable past elections.
