 In addition, the elections did not take place in Schleswig-Holstein, Upper Silesia and East Prussia and West Prussia due to the scheduled plebiscites there.The sitting 42 delegates for these districts temporarily retained their seats until elections could be held in these regions.Given the shift in voting patterns, it was to be expected that similar losses would occur among the 35 seats held by SPD, DDP and Zentrum, further eroding the number of Weimar Coalition delegates.
