Elections and MPs 1952 to 1972

In the state elections in Baden-Württemberg, each voter has only one vote, which is used to determine both the direct candidate and the total number of seats of a party in the state parliament . There are no state or district lists; instead, in order to establish the equalization of proportions, inferior constituency applicants are assigned second mandates . The regulation, which was valid until the 2006 election, provided for these mandates to be allocated according to the absolute number of votes at the level of the administrative districts. In the elections for the national constitutional assembly in 1952, there were no second mandates, but state supplementary lists.

The constituency Heilbronn-Land I was represented by the following members in the state parliament from 1952 to 1976:
