More relevant though as this is a mixed system, not a first pass-the-post: 
My *favourite* graph from yesterday’s election in Sachsen-Anhalt (small, east German Bundesland).
“The CDU should form a coalition with the AFF”
All: 67% no, 26% yes
AFD-voters: 5% no, 91% yes
CDU-voters: 87% no, 11% yes.

Bit of context from @FT
“Saxony-Anhalt is a state with a voting-age population of only 1.8m. German reunification plunged it into an economic depression …, and the population has shrunk by 24% since 1990 as young people drifted westwards in search of better jobs”
