Citizenship elections 1966–2015
Up to and including 2004, the state elections were pure list elections without constituencies. Therefore, the election results in the Bergedorf district are shown for the period from 1966 to 2004 (6th – 18th electoral period). For the years from 2008 the result of the state list, which is decisive for the majority in the citizenship, is given. Only those parties are listed that were able to collect more than five percent of the valid votes cast in at least one district of the constituency in the period shown. In total, the result of an election can therefore be less than 100 percent. All results are given in percent.
