Setback for Olaf Scholz: The Chancellor is also losing support in Bavaria.

The Bavarians are at odds with the speed limit – unlike with longer nuclear power plant run times.

Munich – Looking at the polls is currently no fun for Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD).

The traffic light coalition is divided on the Ukraine conflict – and the polls are going downhill.

Above all, the reputation of the chancellor suffers.

Also in the Free State.

With a majority of Bavarians, Scholz has apparently lost support.

59 percent are now rather dissatisfied or very dissatisfied with their work.

This emerges from the

Bavaria voter check" of the broadcaster Sat.1.

In the last survey in February, 49 percent gave the same answer.

The coalition's reputation is also not in good shape.

59 percent of those surveyed expressed the impression that the traffic light government did not appear to be united and unified - more than 40 percent of the FDP, Greens and SPD supporters responded accordingly.

Almost half of all respondents think the federal government has done too little to support Ukraine.

Only 37 percent of the poll participants are in favor of an immediate embargo on Russian gas and oil.

55 percent fear that Germany could be drawn into the war because of arms deliveries.

Bayern survey: approval for Markus Söder low

However, Prime Minister Markus Söder in Munich cannot benefit from the traffic light Zoff in Berlin.

According to the survey, the CSU leader lost support among the population.

Only 56 percent of Bavarians consider Söder to be a good prime minister.

It is the weakest result for Söder in recent months.

A year ago, 70 percent said the prime minister was doing a good job.

Other surveys also recently confirmed a low level of approval for Söder.

The CSU remains by far the strongest party in Bavaria - albeit at a significantly lower level than in the past.

According to the survey, 38 percent of voters would vote for the Christian Socialists.

For the first time since the federal election, the party has returned to its result in the last state election (37.2 percent).

According to the survey, the Greens would get 16 percent in a hypothetical election on Sunday in Bavaria, the SPD 13, the AfD 9, the Free Voters 8, the FDP 7 and the Left Party 3 percent.

Bavaria survey: only Green voters against longer nuclear power plant terms

With energy prices rising, nuclear power could be on the verge of a renaissance.

Markus Söder would like the nuclear power plants to run longer.

Nuclear power is better than coal, says Söder.

A majority of Bavarians (59 percent) agrees to longer runtimes for the piles – approval is sufficient across all parties.

Only the majority of supporters of the Greens speak out against it.

The Bavarians are divided on the subject of speed limits – a narrow majority of 51 percent are in favor of setting the speed limit on motorways at 130 kilometers per hour.

The speed limit supporters are among the supporters of the CSU (46 percent approval), FDP (47 percent) and AfD (49 percent), however, in the minority.

For the representative "Sat.1 Bayern voter check" the survey institute GMS interviewed 1005 people in Bavaria between April 20th and 25th.
