The 2013 federal election took place on September 22, 2013. 14 state lists were approved, and in the constituency 24 Aurich-Emden six affiliated direct candidates: Johann Saathoff from the SPD was directly elected , Heiko Schmelzle succeeded in entering the Bundestag via the Lower Saxony state list for the CDU . Thilo Hoppe of the Greens, who was eighth on his party's state list , was not re-elected . Since the list only "moved" up to sixth place due to the poorer election results for the Greens compared to 2009, he lost his mandate.

With a first vote result of 50.3 percent, Saathoff got the second best first vote result for the SPD nationwide after Joachim Poss , who got 50.5 percent in the Gelsenkirchen constituency . These remained the only two mandates of the SPD in the federal government with an absolute majority. The second vote result of 43.8 percent meant an improvement of five percent for the SPD compared to 2009, but was still well below the one in the elections up to 2005, in which the Social Democrats won more than 50 percent of the votes for decades. Together with the Herne - Bochum II constituency , the 43.8 percent meant the second best second vote nationwide, again after the Gelsenkirchen constituency with 44.0 percent.

Compared to the Bundestag election in 2009 , both the Greens, the Left and the FDP lost. With a turnout of 69.9 percent, the 2009 figure (70.0 percent) was once again undercut.
