State election in Hamburg, Germany

The 1993 Hamburg state election was held on 19 September 1993 to elect the members of the 15th Hamburg Parliament.[1][2]

After the 1991 election, a group of CDU members brought a complaint over deficiencies in the party's nomination process to the Constitutional Court of Hamburg. On 4 May 1993, the court declared the statewide election and five of the seven district elections to be invalid and ordered a repeat. It did not order by-elections for the remaining term, instead allowing the parliament to dissolve itself and hold new elections for a full term. The parliament voted nearly unanimously for dissolution on 22 June. Markus Wegner, one of the complaining CDU members, founded the Statt Party to contest this election.[3]

The incumbent government of the Social Democratic Party (SPD) lost its majority. The Statt Party succeeded in entering Parliament with 5.6% of the vote. The SPD did not enter into a formal coalition with them, but instead a "cooperation" agreement in which the Statt Party supported the SPD minority government and nominated two technocratic senators from outside the party. First Mayor Henning Voscherau continued in office.
