Every five years, the people in the region decide who will represent their interests in the Regional Assembly. The Assembly has at least 80 members, appointed by the approximately 1.7 million constituents from the urban district of Stuttgart and the rural districts of Böblingen, Esslingen, Göppingen, Ludwigsburg and Rems-Murr.

Voting is by way of proportional representation with lists. The constituents choose one list. There are 88 delegates in the current Regional Assembly, which is also the sixth Regional Assembly. The number of delegates can vary after each election. This is because of up to 16 compensatory seats to ensure that the proportion of seats in the Assembly corresponds both to the result of the votes in the individual constituencies and to the proportion of the total number of votes given in the Stuttgart Region.

The following seats were awarded in 2019:

• Members of the Assembly
• Parliamentary Parties
• Sessions and Documents
