I am not familiar with the constitution of Germany prior to WW2 or after.

If you are referring to Hitler, according to my inferior public education Hitler usurped power unconstitutionaly and was not originally elected.

Are you implying that Lincoln rose to power in any other means other than by a constitutional election? That the elections were rigged?

The Nazi Party received the biggest vote in two elections that were quite free in 1932. The 1933 elections that gave a majority to the Nazis and their Nationalist coalition partners were still semi-free.
