Members
[edit]The constituency has been held by the Social Democratic Party (SPD) during all but three Bundestag terms since 1949; it returned a representative from the SPD in every federal election from 1957 until 2009. Its first representative was Peter Blachstein of the SPD. In 1953, the constituency was won by Fritz Becker of the German Party (DP), who served for a single term. Blachstein won the constituency back for the SPD in 1957. In 1969, he was succeeded by Wilhelm Nölling, who was in turn succeeded in 1976 by Peter Paterna, who served until 1994, and then by Angelika Mertens until 2002. Niels Annen won the constituency in 2005. In 2009, Rüdiger Kruse of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) became the first non-SPD member since 1953; he was defeated in 2013 by Niels Annen, who was re-elected in 2017. In 2021, Till Steffen of the Greens won the constituency.
