Historical national results use the source’s consistent party allocation, including separately tabulated Bavarian and regional lists; these can differ from tables that assign joint lists to the larger partner. Farmers, middle-class, other right-wing and minority groups remain aggregated as published. Turnout is approximately 83% in the historical source. The National Assembly elected a constitution, rather than a regular Reichstag. The final 423-member composition includes the two additional SPD members from the eastern-army supplementary vote; the initial elected chamber had 421 members.
