Constituencies
Up until the 2008 election, the constituency was divided into nine constituencies.

Results of the parties
Elections since 2008
In the state elections in 2008 and 2013, the CSU won all nine and eight direct mandates respectively. The remaining seats were filled by the list applicants who had the largest total number of votes on the relevant party list. In 2018, the CSU won all eight direct mandates again, but would only have been entitled to seven mandates due to the total number of votes. This resulted in an overhang mandate , the SPD benefited as the second strongest force and received the resulting compensation mandate .
