On 4 May 1993, the court declared the statewide election and five of the seven district elections to be invalid and ordered a repeat. It did not order by-elections for the remaining term, instead allowing the parliament to dissolve itself and hold new elections for a full term. The parliament voted nearly unanimously for dissolution on 22 June. Markus Wegner, one of the complaining CDU members, founded the Statt Party to contest this election.Meyer Peter Ulrich Ein Urteil, das Schockwellen auslöste - WELT https://www.welt.de/print/die_welt/hamburg/article115869063/Ein-Urteil-das-Schockwellen-ausloeste.html Die Welt 4 May 2013 de The incumbent government of the Social Democratic Party (SPD) lost its majority.
