2020 by-election

[edit]

The deputy, Éric Straumann, was appointed Mayor of Colmar in 2020.[4] This triggered the accumulation of mandates rule, so he left the National Assembly. His substitute candidate, Brigitte Klinkert, was Minister Delegate for Economic Inclusion, so a by-election was called.
