Nadler began his political commitment in 1966 when he joined the Junge Union . Two years later he became a member of the CSU. He took on his first political mandate in 1978 in the City Council of Bayreuth, of which he is still a member and in which he was chairman of the CSU parliamentary group from 1990 to 1995.

He also won the direct mandate in the 2008 state elections . In the state election in 2013 , he did not appear again.

Relatives affair

In 2013 he hit the headlines in Bayreuth when it became known that he would continue to employ his wife under an old case regulation . He did not provide detailed information on this with reference to his privacy. Joachim Braun, then editor-in-chief of the Nordbayerischer Kurier, sued the decision of the President of the State Parliament, Barbara Stamm (CSU), who refused to publish the figures. In a judgment of September 27, 2018 (Az. 7 C 5.17), the Federal Administrative Court ruled that the Landtag Office must provide a journalist with information about the gross salary paid by a Landtag representative to his wife for employment in the domestic parliamentary office. In the grounds of the judgment it was stated that the right to information of the press deserved “priority over the constitutionally protected freedom of mandate and the protection of personal data of the MP and his wife”.
