    Who are those 50.000 that went from green party to afd? What kind of reason could there possibly be for that?

    Misguided pacifists that believe that the AfD would negotiate a peace deal with Putin in Ukraine. I personally know some like that… who just barely stopped short of admitting they considered voting for the AfD because of that.

      I would imagine those would go vote for the Bündnis Sarah Zarenknecht instead

        Sure, mostly. But especially in east Germany there are some with a deep aversion against voting for “communists”, which is why they voted Green and not LINKE before.
