The Free Voters are likely to be satisfied with their election results in Bavaria anyway. But there is even more reason to be happy.

The free voter politicians Hubert Aiwanger and Roland Weigert have won the first nationwide direct mandates for their party. According to preliminary official results, Aiwanger received 37.2 percent of the vote in the state election in the Lower Bavarian district of Landshut, while Weigert received 31.6 percent in the Upper Bavarian district of Neuburg-Schrobenhausen.
