Late 1920s–1930: Nazis were marginal (under 3% in 1928 elections). The 1929 Wall Street Crash and Depression boosted them by exploiting economic despair, unemployment, and resentment over Versailles.

September 1930 elections: Nazis surged to 18.3% (107 seats), becoming the second-largest party and the dominant force on the right.

July 1932 elections: Peak electoral strength at ~37% (230 seats), the largest party but short of a majority. November 1932 saw a slight decline.

January 30, 1933: President Paul von Hindenburg appointed Hitler Chancellor in a coalition with conservatives (e.g., Franz von Papen). This was the pivotal moment of political dominance via backroom deals, as conservatives underestimated Hitler and hoped to control him.
