German People's Union
Elections are conducted using proportional representation systems in both voting districts Bremen (68 seats) and Bremerhaven (15 seats), with a minimum of 5% vote share per voting district to receive any seats. The 5% rule is used separately, thus allowing the German People's Union to join the "Bürgerschaft" by winning 5.7% of the votes in Bremerhaven while winning only 2.75% in the whole state of Bremen.
