1959 Rhineland-Palatinate state election

Source 📝

43:(DRP) crossed the 5% electoral threshold and was thus able to send one deputy to the Landtag - Hans Schikora (1912-2005). The reason for this was the winegrowers' (Rhineland-Palatinate is Germany's most important winegrowing region) concerns that the European Economic Community (EEC) would intensify competition with better and cheaper French wines, thus threatening their livelihoods. Thus the DRP's protectionist propaganda resonated with the winegrowers, as did stirring up the anti-French sentiment with the slogan "Out with all the occupiers" ("Raus mit allen Besatzern") (Rhineland-Palatinate was formed out of the French occupation zone). However, the lone Schikora was quickly isolated by the other parties. After DRP members in the neighboring state of NRW defaced the Cologne synagogue with swastikas on Christmas Eve 1959, the Rhineland-Palatinate interior ministry banned DRP on 26 January 1960, so Schikora (who was also expelled from the national party) continued to sit in the Landtag as an unaffiliated member until the next elections. 288: 62: 538: 543: 276: 254: 269: 512: 584: 262: 603: 399: 393: 388: 383: 378: 373: 368: 363: 358: 353: 348: 343: 338: 333: 328: 318: 313: 308: 517: 90: 577: 608: 242: 111: 491: 486: 481: 476: 471: 466: 461: 456: 451: 446: 441: 436: 431: 426: 421: 416: 292: 300: 132: 52: 21: 618: 570: 613: 507: 237:(in German).
