The incumbent Christian Democratic Union (CDU) government under Minister-President Erwin Teufel lost its majority. The CDU suffered a 9.4% swing, mostly to the national conservative Republicans, who achieved their best result in a state election, placing third with 10.9%. After the election, the CDU formed a grand coalition with the Social Democratic Party (SPD), and Teufel was re-elected as Minister-President.
