The FDP saw the state office around 10 p.m. at 5.2 percent. The Bürger in Wut (BIW) association recorded significant growth. It was located at 9.4 percent – and apparently benefited from the fact that the divided Bremen AfD was not admitted to the election due to competing election lists. In the 2019 election, BIW only got 2.4 percent.
SPD Mayor Bovenschulte has so far ruled in Bremen with the Greens and the Left Party. On the evening of the election, he initially left open whether he would continue this alliance or enter into a possible coalition with the CDU.
