The article discusses German elections. In the elections to the German Reichstag of November 6, 1932, the Nazis suffered a remarkable defeat. In comparison with the last previous general elections, they lost about two million votes, and instead of 230 deputies, two-fifths of the Reichstag, they returned only 197. A mere one-third of the German electorate had given them their vote. This setback was emphasized by even more decisive defeats at municipal and local elections in the following December. In Thuringia, for instance, the Nazi Party lost 40 per cent of the votes it had polled six months earlier; in Saxony and northern Germany it lost 50 percent.
