The 1913 Baden state election was held in 1913.
Background
[edit]The Grand Duchy of Baden was one of the most liberal areas in the German Empire. The National Liberal Party (NLP) controlled the bureaucracy and politics of Baden during the 1800s. In 1904, legislation allowing Secret ballots and the Direct election of the lower house was passed. The Social Democratic Party (SPD) and Centre Party grew after 1904. The NLP and Centre formed a coalition after the 1913 election.[1]
Edmund Rebmann, the chair of the National Liberal Party of Baden, was worried about the growing strength of the Centre Party in southern Germany.[2]
Results
[edit]Around 50,000 citizens were ineligible to vote due to residency requirements.[3] Right-wing parties were able to undo their losses in the 1909 election.[4]
