Ernst Albrecht (born June 29 1930 in Heidelberg ) is a German politician ( CDU ) and was Minister-President of Lower Saxony from 1976 until 1990. Surprisingly he wasn't expected to become prime minister in 1976, because SPD and FDP had a majority in the parliament, but when Alfred Kubel resigned, Albrecht was elected in secret vote by three members of the SPD-FPD coalition. During his tenure Albrecht was famously embroiled in an unusually large number of political scandals. He is the father of Ursula Von Der Leyen (former Minister of Social Affairs in Lower Saxony, and since November 22 , 2005 holding the same position in the German federal government). REFERENCES
