Location of constituency in Brandenburg

Dahme-Spreewald – Teltow-Fläming III – Oberspreewald-Lausitz I is one of the 299 single member constituencies used for the German parliament, the Bundestag. One of ten districts covering the state of Brandenburg, it contains the whole of the county of Dahme-Spreewald, half of Teltow-Fläming and a small section of the county of Oberspreewald-Lausitz.[1] The constituency elects one representative under the mixed member proportional representation (MMP) system. Under the current constituency numbering system, it is designated as constituency 62.

The constituency was created for the 2002 election, following a reduction in the number of Bundestag constituencies. The first three elections were won by The Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD.) However, at the 2013 election, the constituency was gained by the Christian Democratic Union. The representative elected in 2013 is Jana Schimke.[1]
