# List of electoral districts in the Landtag of Brandenburg

This list of Electoral Districts in the Landtag of Brandenburg contains the current electoral districts for the fourth election period for the Landtag of Brandenburg as well as for the fifth election cycle in the Landtag of Brandenburg on September 27, 2009.

## History

Since the first Landtag Elections to the Landtag of Brandenburg on October 14, 1990 there existed 44 electoral districts with one direct mandate, which still included many list mandates. The former constituency boundaries are oriented to the districts and cities, that were accepted in the former DDR. In the outline of the Kreisreform Brandenburg 1993 many necessary changes were made but the number of electoral districts and mandates remained constant. The new version of the Brandenburg Election Laws (January 28, 2004) contained further modifications to the classifications of these area. Compared to the previous Landstag elections in 1999, new classifications reflected the changing population trends in various parts of the country and well as the changing Municipal boundaries. These areas remained the same during the Landstag Elections of 2009.
The legal minimum of members in the Landstag is 88, so that, in addition to the 44 direct mandates, there would also be 44 members elected by a list mandate who would be awarded electoral districts. Though Overhang seats and Leveling Seats the number of members can increase to a maximum of 110 members.
