Overview of the electoral process in the Free State of Prussia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Free State of Prussia held elections to its Landtag between 1919 and 1933.[1] From 1919 through 1928, these elections gave a plurality to the SPD. In 1932 and 1933, the NSDAP (Nazi Party) won pluralities, generally in line with the rest of Germany.[2][3] The Landtag subsequently was formally abolished as a result of the "Law on the Reconstruction of the Reich" of 30 January 1934 which replaced the German federal system with a unitary state.[4]
