In 2009, the CDU/FDP coalition got a majority of the seats in the Schleswig-Holstein state parliament despite winning fewer votes than the remaining parties in parliament. This was due to the overhang seats obtained by the CDU and the insufficient number of neutralizing seats given to the other parties.

CDU + FDP = 46.4% and 48 out of 95 seats
SPD/Greens/Left Party/SSW = 48.1% and 47 out of 95 seats
