German far-right AfD wins key state election but falls short of majority

A German far-right party made big gains in Sunday's regional election. Exit polls show AfD secured 43.8 percent of the vote, in the eastern state of Saxony-Anhalt.

And that could test a long-standing policy among Germany's mainstream parties of refusing to work with the far-right. Al Jazeera's Dominic Kane reports from Berlin, Germany.
