Sören Pellmann was elected with 25.3% of the first votes with the lowest percentage of first votes of all direct mandates of the left, with the second lowest percentage of first votes of all direct mandates nationwide (after Eva Högl in the Bundestag constituency of Berlin-Mitte ) and with a very small margin of 0.7 % compared to the runner-up. After the CDU had already obtained overhang seats in Leipzig II without a direct mandate , its election tended to counteract an inflation of the Bundestag through additional mandates for the CDU and compensatory mandates for other parties.
