Politics of Saxony-Anhalt

(Redirected from Draft:Politics of Saxony-Anhalt)

The politics of the German state of Saxony-Anhalt take place within a framework of a federal parliamentary representative democratic republic, where the Federal Government of Germany exercises sovereign rights with certain powers reserved to the states of Germany including Saxony-Anhalt. The three main parties are the centre-right Christian Democratic Union, the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD), and the left-wing Left Party.[1]

Every five years, all Germans residing in the State over the age of 18 elect the members of the Landtag of Saxony-Anhalt. This regional parliament or legislature then elects the Minister-President and confirms the cabinet members.

The Christian Democratic Union (CDU) has been the largest party in every election since 2002 Saxony-Anhalt state election.
