It shouldn't. They did so poorly because 10% of the German electorate shifted even farther to the far right AfD, and another 10% had already done so in previous elections.

Don't confuse the electorate shifting with non-voters turning up to give a finger to the whole system, that's the AfD's biggest gain. This shit will continue until rent becomes affordable again or another party manages to capture the same vote.
