In Germany's western city of Gelsenkirchen, the far-right AfD did well in this year's general election. Now the party hopes to win in local elections there. It's a nightmare scenario for many.
I read that more like partly qualifies the extremist, they are fully right wing. What exactly is an extremist partly-right, or partly-left for that matter?
The “partly” refers to the AfD, not their ideology. Parts of the AfD are “only” far-right, parts are neonazi. The whole party is thus partly extremist right.
I think by partly right wing they meant the CDU, which adopted some stances of the AFD while still trying to appeal to the center. And they are for some reason the biggest party where the AFD isn’t.

Right, not partly-right extremist, partly right-extremist
