Seats projected by demographic reach and regional support each turn.
A single seat, decided on plurality. Norbert Blüm took 36.2% against 36.2% for the nearest rival.
Why NW voters lean toward Franz Müntefering over Norbert Blüm. Each driver is signed: + = lift, − = drag. Drivers are relative within this list and only move the persuadable slice of each party's vote, so their real effect is small. Coattail rows are direct share tilts in %. A raw vote lead does not equal the sum of these bars.
Ceiling this cycle: at most 20.0% of Norbert Blüm's vote can be persuaded across to Franz Müntefering, and 20.0% of Franz Müntefering's vote can be persuaded away. Registration lean sets the starting split and how hard a party is to move, not the final share. These drivers add up to 0.0 pts of that movable slice.
