history
1946 to 1969
On May 30, 1946, the Bavarian FDP was officially founded in Nuremberg . On May 15th, Thomas Dehler became chairman of the Bavarian FDP. The FDP achieved 5.7% of the vote in the state elections in Bavaria in 1946 and moved into the first Bavarian state parliament with 9 state parliament members. She became an opposition party. In the state elections in Bavaria in 1950 , the FDP achieved an increase in votes of 1.4 percentage points to 7.1% of the vote, and provided 12 members of the state parliament in the Bavarian state parliament. With the state elections in Bavaria in 1954 , the opposition period of the FDP ended. 7.2% were achieved, which corresponded to an increase in votes of 0.1 percentage points. The FDP provided a total of 13 members in the Bavarian state parliament. Together with the SPD, BP and GB / BHE, a government was formed under Prime Minister Wilhelm Hoegner. In the Hoegner II cabinet , the FDP provided a minister in the form of Economics and Transport Minister Otto Bezold . On July 8, 1956, Albrecht Haas replaced long-time chairman Thomas Dehler. On October 8, 1957, the coalition of four collapsed. The FDP formed a new government with GB / BHE and the CSU under Prime Minister Hanns Seidel. In the Seidel I cabinet , the FDP once again provided a minister, Interior Minister Otto Bezold.
The state elections in Bavaria in 1958 brought the FDP a loss of 1.6 percentage points. Overall, the FDP was able to return to the Bavarian state parliament with a result of 5.6% and 8 members. The coalition with the CSU and GB / BHE was continued. In the Seidel II cabinet , the FDP provided Justice Minister Albrecht Haas as a minister. From January 26, 1960, Hans Ehard took over the office of Prime Minister, the coalition continued with the same ministerial staff. The state election in Bavaria in 1962 ended with a result of 5.9% for the FDP, compared to the last state election it gained 0.3 percentage points and had 9 members in the state parliament. It became an opposition party for the next 46 years. From November 29, 1964, Klaus Dehler replaced Albrecht Haas as chairman. The state election in Bavaria in 1966 ended in a fiasco for the FDP. It was only achieved 5.1% and due to the Bavarian suffrage at the time, the FDP left the state parliament for the first time. This was followed by four years of extra-parliamentary opposition time until 1970. On March 5, 1967, Dietrich Bahner became the new chairman of the Bavarian FDP.
1970 to 1999
With the state elections in Bavaria in 1970 , the Bavarian FDP returned to the state parliament with a result of 5.5% and an increase in votes of 0.4 percentage points. It had 10 members in the state parliament and became a parliamentary opposition party. In the same year, the Thomas Dehler Foundation, a party-affiliated foundation for Bavaria was established.
On March 6, 1971, Josef Ertl became chairman of the Bavarian FDP. In the state election in Bavaria in 1974 , the FDP lost 0.3 percentage points and entered the state parliament with 5.2% and 8 members. It remained an opposition party. In the subsequent state election , the FDP was able to gain 1.0 percentage points and achieved 6.2%. The FDP moved into the Bavarian state parliament with 10 members as the opposition party.
In the state elections in Bavaria in 1982 , the FDP only achieved 3.5%, which corresponds to losses of 2.7 percentage points. The FDP failed with the five percent hurdle and became an extra-parliamentary opposition party. On May 1, 1983 Manfred Brunner became the new chairman of the Bavarian FDP. The state election in Bavaria in 1986 brought an increase of 0.3 percentage points, but with a result of 3.8% it was not enough for a place in the state parliament. On February 18, 1989 Josef Grünbeck took over the office of chairman. It was not until the state elections in Bavaria in 1990 that the extra-parliamentary opposition period ended. With a plus of 1.4 percentage points and a result of 5.2%, the FDP moved into the Bavarian state parliament. It had 7 MPs and became a parliamentary opposition party. The new chairman was Max Stadler on June 8, 1991 .
The state elections in Bavaria in 1994 ended with a loss of 2.4 percentage points and a result of 2.8%. The FDP became an extra-parliamentary opposition party. With the state election in Bavaria in 1998 , the FDP lost 1.1 percentage points. Only 1.7% was achieved, the worst result since the Second World War . Another 5 extra-parliamentary opposition years followed. On November 28, 1998, Max Stadler was replaced as chairman by Hermann K. Stützer .
After the federal and state elections in 1998, the FDP Bavaria faced a serious crisis. She had got into considerable financial difficulties, which were also due to the fact that an employee had embezzled funds. Heavy wing battles, from which Hermann K. Stützer emerged victorious, also shook the party in terms of content and paralyzed political work.
2000 until today
On December 2nd, 2000 Sabine Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger was elected chairwoman of the Bavarian FDP. The state elections in Bavaria in 2003 brought the FDP gains of 0.9 percentage points, but with 2.6% it clearly missed out on entry into the Bavarian state parliament. This was followed by 5 years of extra-parliamentary opposition time until 2008. In the 2005 Bundestag election , the FDP Bayern won five additional mandates with 9.5% (+ 5%) of the second vote and provided a regional group with nine members in the 16th German Bundestag . With the state elections in 2008 , the FDP Bayern succeeded for the first time since the state elections in 1990 to again move into the Bavarian state parliament with 16 members of the state parliament and thus with a parliamentary group . 8.0% were achieved. Together with the CSU, a black-yellow coalition was formed under Prime Minister Seehofer. In the Seehofer I cabinet , the FDP provided two ministers: Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economics, Infrastructure, Transport and Technology, Martin Zeil , and Minister of Science, Research and Art, Wolfgang Heubisch . In the 2009 Bundestag elections , the FDP Bayern won five additional mandates with 14.7% (+ 5.2%) of the second vote and in the 17th electoral term provided a fourteen-member state group in the 17th German Bundestag .
With the state elections on September 15, 2013 , the FDP dropped to 3.3 percent of the vote, so that after five years of parliamentary presence it is again not represented in the state parliament. A new period of extra-parliamentary opposition began. In the subsequent federal election on September 22, 2013 , the FDP in Bavaria received 5.1 percent of the votes, but failed to return to the Bundestag for the first time in its history with 4.8 percent of the votes nationwide. The 14 Bavarian members of the Bundestag lost their seats accordingly. On November 23, 2013 Albert Duin replaced the long-time chairwoman Sabine Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger as chairman.
Daniel Föst was elected as the new state chairman on November 11, 2017 . In the 2017 federal election , the Free Democrats returned to parliament, and the FDP Bavaria has been represented there by 12 members since then. In the run-up to the state elections in 2018 , Martin Hagen prevailed in the first primary election in party history as the top candidate of the Bavarian FDP. In the state elections on October 14, 2018, the Liberals managed to move into the Maximilianeum with 5.1 percent.
