# Greiz II

Greiz II is one of 44 electoral constituencies (German: Wahlkreise) represented in the Landtag of Thuringia, which usually has twice as many members, 88.
Each constituency elects one member via first-past-the-post voting (first vote, or direct vote), while others may get elected via their state-wide party list. This second vote, or party vote, is more significant as it determines the party proportions and majorities in the parliament, thus the number of members of each party, while the first vote only has some influence on which persons from a major party are elected. It is insignificant to small parties, most of them don't bother to run a direct candidate unless he holds a high and relatively "safe" rank on the state-wide party list from which the additional 44 members are selected.
Under the current constituency numbering system, it is designated as constituency 40 of 44. It covers the eastern part of the district of Greiz.
Greiz II was created for the 1994 state election. Since 2014, it has been represented by Christian Tischner of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU). Several other candidates also became member of the state parliament via their party list, like Heike Taubert (SPD), member of the left-wing coalition state government since 2014.

## Election results
### 2024 election

The 2024 Thuringian state election on September 1 was different for Greiz II district due to the first time candidacy of Björn Höcke, leader of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) in Thuringia, and arguably its most controversial figure nation-wide. Also, the leading party in the state, The Left (Germany), had split up in winter, creating Bündnis Sahra Wagenknecht (BSW).
Since 2014, Höcke ran twice in Eichsfeld I, a catholic region with a firm CDU 50+% majority, and became member of state parliament due to his high and "safe" position on the AfD party list, number 1. Due to these lists, even the top figures of small 5+% parties will become parliament members, without running in a district, or doing there very poorly. On the other hand, if a party wins many constituencies, but ends up with popular vote to low to back them up, no seat might be assigned via list, and party leaders might be left out if they were not among the winners in a district. In fact, the CDU in 2019 had won nearly half of all districts, 21, but their third place popular vote of 21.7% would earn them only 20 seats in a 88 seat parliament, which was enlarged to 90 to accommodate 21 CDU seats. The AfD had won 23.4% of the popular vote, and 22 of 90 seats, eleven each direct and from list.
The growing success of the AfD, which became the leading party in polls, but due to more than two parties being involved at only 30+%, thus might have led to the strange case of leading AfD politicians not making the parliament any-more via list, only if they win a district. The same scenario traditionally applies to the leading party in Bavaria, the CSU. Höcke thus looked for a district with better chances, and was nominated in Greiz II. As it turned out, in 2024 the AfD came in first with 32.8% of the popular vote, 32 of 88 seats, 29 direct, and three from the list, for Höcke and two others.
