A look at the election

How the local elections in Bavaria runs is already well documented. On March 8, 2026, municipal representations in cities, municipalities and counties will be elected. This date was elected to deduct it from the Easter holidays, as reported pnp.de. The last community and district elections took place on March 15, 2020. The calculation procedure according to Sainte-Laguё/Schepers is used for the distribution of votes, in which the total number of votes is shared by odd numbers. This ensures a fair distribution of the seats, whereby the lot decides in the event of tension.

In a municipality with 7,000 inhabitants and 20 local council seats available, this procedure can be crucial for everyone involved. So it remains to be seen how the voters will set the course for the coming years.
