Original sentence: At one polling booth in Langenhorn, the results for the FDP and Greens were accidentally reversed, meaning the preliminary results placed the FDP 121 votes above the threshold.Projections shown well into the evening suggested that AfD would miss the threshold while FDP would exceed it, leading to false press reports of an AfD defeat and exclusion of its politicians from post-election debates.The Alternative for Germany (AfD) declined in voteshare and seat count compared to a previous election for the first time in its history.The Free Democratic Party fell narrowly short of the 5% electoral threshold, winning only one seat from a direct mandate.The Left also saw a small upswing.The mistake was corrected in the official count which took place over 24 hours later
Edited sentence: All other parties fell short of the 5% threshold.Both parties' efforts had been impeded by political violence.Irregularities during the vote count temporarily led to a confusion of a number of FDP and Green party votes.Misleading projections shown by public TV stations suggested that AfD would miss the threshold well into the evening, while FDP would make it, leading to false press reports about an AfD defeat and an exclusion of its politicians from post-election debates.The Free Democratic Party, which had finished ahead of AfD in the last election, failed to re-enter parliament on the state level by narrowly missing the electoral threshold and only kept a single seat via a local district vote.The difference was enough to decide the FDP's membership in the new legislature.The right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) virtually maintained its total number of votes, yet dropped by 0.8 points in the voteshare due to an higher turn-out and lost a seat.With the exception of the Greens, The Left was the only party in parliament that increased its share of the overall popular vote
