State Parliament for Württemberg-Hohenzollern
The parliament of Württemberg-Hohenzollern was the first freely elected parliament after the Second World War, in the French occupation zone country incurred Württemberg-Hohenzollern . The Landtag was the successor body to the Advisory State Assembly for Württemberg-Hohenzollern, elected by local delegates . The election took place on May 18, 1947 at the same time as the vote on the state constitution drawn up by the National Consultative Assembly.
The constituent session of the state parliament took place on June 3, 1947 in the Bebenhausen monastery . The Landtag was elected for four years; the new election should have taken place in the spring of 1951. Because of the planned amalgamation of Württemberg-Hohenzollern with Baden and Württemberg-Baden , the electoral term was extended by a decree by President Gebhard Müller until the three states were unified. The constitutional amendment required for this was approved by the population together with the referendum on the unification of the three countries on December 9, 1951. It became necessary after the Federal Constitutional Court declared the First Federal Restructuring Act, which provided for an extension of the electoral term to March 31, 1952, to be invalid.
Bureau
At the constituent meeting, Karl Gengler ( CDU ) was elected President of the State Parliament. First deputy was Fritz Fleck ( SPD ), second deputy Karl Kübler ( DVP ). The presidium corresponded exactly to that of the advisory state assembly. After Karl Kübler resigned from his office, Eduard Leuze (DVP) was elected as his successor on June 22, 1948 as the second deputy to the President of the State Parliament.
Distribution of seats
In the state elections of May 18, 1947, the CDU emerged as the clear winner with 54.2 percent of the vote, the SPD received 20.8 percent, the DVP 17.7 percent and the KPD 7.3 percent. This resulted in the following distribution of mandates:

CDU | 32 seats | Franz Gog |
SPD | 12 seats | Oskar Kalbfell |
DVP | 11 seats | Eduard Leuze |
KPD | 5 seats | Wilfried Acker |

In addition, Wilhelm Göttler and Josef Schmid, two MPs from the Bavarian district of Lindau, were represented in the state parliament, which is why the total number was initially 62. Both MPs belonged to the CDU. The Lindau district was the only Bavarian district to belong to the French occupation zone and was therefore administratively affiliated to Württemberg-Hohenzollern. With the transfer of representation of the district to Bavaria on December 19, 1950, these two members of parliament left the state parliament.
