German Electoral Coalition
The German Electoral Coalition (German: Deutsche Wahlgemeinschaft, Czech: Německé volební společenství) was a political alliance in Czechoslovakia representing Sudeten Germans.
History
[edit]The alliance was established for the 1929 elections as an alliance of the Farmers' League (BdL), the German Labour and Economic Community (DAWG) and the Carpathian German Party (KdP, led by Dr. Roland Steinacker).[1][2][3] DAWG, in turn, was an alliance between DDFP (led by Prof. Bruno Kafka) and the DNP faction led by Dr. Alfred Rosche.[2][3]
It received 5.4% of the national vote, winning 16 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and nine in the Senate.[1] No candidate belonging to KdP was elected.[3]
