The CDU became the strongest party with 56 seats. The SPD received 55 seats and the GAL 9. The FDP failed with 4.9% just under the five percent hurdle. For the first time, the so-called “ Hamburg conditions ” occurred in a German state election : This means that the strongest party (here the CDU) neither has its own sufficient majority to govern nor a (natural) coalition partner and possible arithmetical majorities (here a grand coalition or red-green) fail due to the partners' willingness to negotiate. In this case, the SPD negotiated with the GAL about a possible tolerance. After these talks failed, new elections were held in December 1982 .
