Hitler was not elected. Only approximately a third of the German people voted for him, and at the time of his appointment as Chancellor, the Nazis were actually on the downswing as a party.

See this for details of the demographics of how the vote went:

…[E]ven at the peak of the NSDAP’s popularity before this moment, almost 63 per cent of the German electorate did not vote for the Nazis. What is more, in November 1932, the Nazi Party actually lost 2 million votes. This means that Hitler was not directly voted in to power; for in the Weimar system of absolute proportional representation, 37 per cent of the vote in July 1932 gave the Nazis nothing like a majority in the Reichstag.

Only a third in free elections. After that, of course, the elections were not free, nor were the people.

More on the demographics of the Nazis’ support:

Although Hitler’s political career began in Munich, in the elections of 1928 to November 1932 the NSDAP won a higher share of the vote in Protestant than in Catholic Germany. In the Catholic Rhineland and Bavaria (apart from Protestant Franconia) it polled disproportionately badly. In fact in July 1932 the Nazi share of the vote was almost twice as high in Protestant as in Catholic areas…

There can be no doubt that the NSDAP recruited across a broad social spectrum. However, its support was not random. We have already noted the over-representation of Protestants, rural areas and small provincial towns, as well as of the Mittelstand, in Nazi support and there was a similar structure to the movement’s working-class constituency. The working class, however, was under-represented in the Nazi ranks when compared to the German population as a whole.

The working-class presence among those who voted for Hitler can be made to correlate positively with the proportion of working classes in the electorate as a whole only when foremen, daily helps, workers in domestic industry and, significantly, agricultural labourers are included in the definition of working class. When rural labourers (who inhabited a world quite different to that of the city dweller and factory employee, often paid in kind or subject to landlord pressure) are removed from the equation, a slight negative correlation arises between Nazi support and working-class presence. And if workers in craft (as distinct from factory) sectors are also removed from the equation, the correlation becomes even more negative. It is negative, too, in the large cities where, the closer we look at the factory working class, the lower the percentage support for the NSDAP becomes.

Furthermore, only 13 per cent of the unemployed — who comprised some 30 per cent of the manual working class in the middle of 1932 and who were over whelmingly concentrated in the big cities and in large-scale manufacture — supported the National Socialists.

What about gender differences? It’s an interesting story, actually:

The relative unattractiveness of the Left to female voters was compensated by a propensity to support those parties close to the churches, such as the nationalist DNVP in the case of Protestants and, to a much greater extent, the Centre Party or BVP in the case of Catholics. In Cologne-Aachen in 1930, 18.9 per cent of male and 33.1 per cent of females voted for the Centre Party. In Augsburg in the same year, 24.8 per cent of men and 39 per cent of women gave their support to the BVP. Desertions from the Catholic camp to the KPD and the NSDAP in the Depression were almost exclusively male.

Until 1930 women remained unlikely to vote for the Nazi Party. Moreover, in the presidential election of 1932 a clear majority of women preferred Hindenburg to Hitler. However, the early 1930s did see a narrowing of the gap between male and female voting patterns, especially in Protestant areas. Indeed, in some of these by July 1932 the NSDAP was winning a higher percentage of the female to male vote. In that month some 6.5 million women voted Nazi, many of them probably with few or no previous political ties. Where they came from the working class, they were likely to be non-unionised textile operatives or domestic workers.

In other words, although a higher percentage of women than men voted for Nazis, it was more because fewer women voted for the left (and fewer voted in general) than that there was such big support for Nazis among women. In fact, at no point did the majority of women (or, of course, men) favor the Nazis.

all one has to do is see the DEMOGRAPHICS…
hitler was elected (chancelor)…
if he was elected dog catcher, he could never rule

as far as women voting for him, just compare the demographic population pre WWI, to post WWI…
in some cities, the ratio was extreme

of course… we dont know this as leftists have hitler as right…and feminists deny womens roles in that… but note… whn your not the one getting killed, its easy to vote the fate of another.

OBVIOUSLY you have not bothered to read the speeches given at the time. they were not directed to men, they were directed to women!!!

German women, German men !

It is a happy accident that my first speech since taking charge of the Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda is to German women.

Although I agree with Treitschke that men make history, I do not forget that women raise boys to manhood. You know that the National Socialist movement is the only party that keeps women out of daily politics.

This arouses bitter criticism and hostility, all of it very unjustified. We have kept women out of the parliamentary-democratic intrigues of the past fourteen years in Germany not because we do not respect them, but because we respect them too much.

We do not see the woman as inferior, but rather as having a different mission, a different value, than that of the man.

Therefore we believed that the German woman, who more than any other in the world is a woman in the best sense of the word, should use her strength and abilities in other areas than the man.

read the speeches..
when i posted the populations rather than the percentages you cut them out… censored them… (for other reasons naturally)

here is some more exerpts from geoebbles speech

The feminization of men always leads to the masculinization of women. An age in which all great idea of virtue, of steadfastness, of hardness, and determination have been forgotten should not be surprised that the man gradually loses his leading role in life and politics and government to the woman

A characteristic of the modern era is a rapidly declining birthrate in our big cities. In 1900, two million babies were born in Germany. Now the number has fallen to one million. This drastic decline is most evident in the nation’s capital. In the last fourteen years, Berlin’s birthrate has become the lowest of any European city. By 1955, without emigration, it will have only about three million inhabitants

The main purpose of the exhibition “The Woman” is not only to show the way things are, but to make proposals for improvement. It aims to show new ways and new opportunities. Clear and often drastic examples will give thousands of German women reason to think and consider. It is particularly pleasing to us men in the new government that families with many children are given particular attention, since we want to rescue the nation from decline

read the speeches… politicians spent a lot of time on the people who could influence outcomes.

see the british white feathers, who shamed young men to go die

The sacrificial lambs of the modern world …

It was a religious war — but without Faith.

Folks, this is what happens when the First Commandment is grossly violated.

Which see the White House right now.

OfA is the acronym with the duality:

Obama fxxx America.

This is the boy that gives the finger from the podium, is it not?

Yes, non citizen were preferentially turned in.
People were tucked in everywhere south of the occupation line. There were many Le Chambon in one form or another.
Children were comparatively easier to hide, so they were oftentimes by themselves.

Food was a big problem. Those giving shelter had to pool their ration tickets. That was hard, specially for security reasons.
Denunciations were rife. There are horror stories.
So I was told.

It took a long time for the French social fabric to come back together over WWII. Until about 1975 I reckon, when I then witnessed some end to the shunning.
I recall a fist fight around 1972!

With the modern publishing/printing capabilities more local history is revealed. This book for an example.

Never thought about the Italians in all this. Nobody ever talked about them except for some of their planes participating in the strafing of refugees on the roads.

The blood bath finally ended. Europe become a huge brothel for a few years and then … they all went back to their old voting patterns.
Including Leon Blum who somehow survived the war ….

WWII was a Socialist civil war ….
