The 2020 Bavarian local elections were held on 15 March 2020 in all districts and municipalities of the Free State of Bavaria in Germany. All councils and most district administrators and mayors were elected for a six-year term. Runoff elections for district administrators and mayors were held on 29 March 2020.
The election was criticised for being held during the COVID-19 pandemic in Germany.[1] The Christian Social Union achieved their worst ever results in the history of the state, and the Social Democratic Party also suffered heavy losses. The Greens gained many votes and became the second biggest party, but far behind what was expected.[2]
