The election for the 2nd Bavarian State Parliament took place on November 26, 1950. The turnout was 79.9%.

Starting point and result

There was a 10% threshold at the district level , i.e. H. a party had to achieve 10% of the valid votes in at least one of the districts in order to enter the state parliament.

The CSU received 27.4 percent of the vote after 52.3 percent in the 1946 election (loss of 24.9 percentage points), which is the lowest result of the CSU in its history. For the first and only time, the SPD achieved a relative majority of the vote; the CSU nonetheless received one more parliamentary mandate (64) than the SPD (63). The CSU received two overhang mandates in the constituency of Swabia , the SPD and the Bavarian party each received one seat less. The Bavarian Party, which was taking part for the first time, and the BHE as the political mouthpiece for the displaced, caused a massive shift in the previous party structure. CSU and SPD formed a coalition under Prime Minister Hans Ehard ( Ehard III cabinet ).
