Hamburg conditions
The Hamburg situation is a situation in which, for party political reasons, the city of Hamburg is suspected of being ungovernable or is actually there.
history
The term originated after the 1982 state elections , when three parties were elected to the Hamburg state parliament on June 6, 1982 . The CDU received 43.2% of the vote as the winner, the SPD 42.7% and the Green Alternative List (GAL) as the third strongest party 7.7%. The FDP failed with 4.9% of the vote at the five percent hurdle . Since the CDU and SPD neither wanted to form a grand coalition nor to form a coalition with the GAL, a minority government of the SPD, tolerated by the GAL, emerged. The citizenry then decided to dissolve it in accordance with Article 11 of the Constitution and elections that were held in December 1982 .
After the state elections in 1986 it came back to "Hamburg conditions". Again, the CDU was the winner with 41.9% of the votes ahead of the SPD (41.7%) and the GAL (10.4%); the FDP with 4.8% is not represented in the citizenry due to the five percent hurdle. Since the parties could not agree on a government coalition, the citizenship was dissolved and re-elected in May 1987 .
