 | | The Greens gained a record 13 of Germany's 99 seats in these elections, particularly on the back of the perceived competence of Green ministers in the federal government and the unpopularity of the SPD. | | | After some success at state level and the vote for the European parliament, the party first won seats in the Bundestag, the lower house of the German parliament, in the 1983 election. | | | The November 2003 party convention was held in Dresden and decided about the election platform for the 2004 European Parliament elections. |
