Quick explanation
The state parliament of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania – the state parliament (Landtag) – is elected for 5 years.
Why is this correct?
The state parliament (Landtag) has a legislative term of 5 years.
Background
Every federal state has its own directly elected parliament (Article 28 of the Basic Law). In Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania it is called the state parliament (Landtag). It passes state laws, for example on schools and the police, adopts the state budget and elects the head of the state government. In almost all states the term lasts five years – only Bremen votes every four years.
Why are the other answers wrong?
3, 4, 6 years are wrong. For comparison: the Bundestag is elected every four years, the European Parliament every five years.
Memory tip
Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania: state parliament (Landtag) every 5 years.
Legal basis: Art. 28 Basic Law (GG) ↗
