Hmm, interesting. Was perusing this wiki entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weimar_Republic
Especially the part subtitled "The Collapse of the Weimar Republic and the Rise of Hitler". Looks like two elections were held trying to establish a clear majority in the Reichstag. The NSDAP was voted the majority, at which time Hitler demanded to be "appointed" chancellor. Not quite the same as casting a direct ballot for or against a person......but it seems his party at least did win a popular election. > Yes, he was voted into office in the last free and fair election in > the Weimar Republic- 1932.
