Early political career
Lindner joined the FDP in 1995. He has been a member of the executive board of FDP in North Rhine-Westphalia since 1998 and has been Secretary General since 2004 (until February 2010). Lindner, 21, was elected at the Landtag of North Rhine-Westphalia in May 2000, becoming the youngest member of the state parliament of North Rhine-Westphalia. Lindner was first a "spokesman for Intergenerational Affairs, Family, Integration" in 2000, and then became vice chairman of the FDP parliamentary group in parliament and spokesman for Innovation, Science, and Technology from 2005 to 2009. He joined the executive board of the FDP on a federal basis in 2007.
Lindner was a member of the German Bundestag from 2009 to 2011. Following the 2009 federal election, he was a member of the FDP delegation on families, integration of immigrants, and culture, led by Maria Böhmer and Hans-Joachim Otto.
Lindner was FDP's executive from December 2009 to his surprise departure in December 2011, largely under the leadership of party chairman Guido Westerwelle and later under Philipp Rösler, who was forced to resign. Lindner's resignation was triggered by an internal party vote that had been coerced by a group centring around the Eurosceptic FDP parliamentarian Frank Schäffler to determine the FDP's future direction on topics relating to the European Stability Mechanism (ESM).
Lindner was later elected to chair the NRW FDP in the 2012 state election of North Rhine-Westphalia, replacing Daniel Bahr. The FDP gained 8.6% of the vote in the general election, overshadowing all expectations at the time, as the party had been struggling to achieve the minimum representation of 5% for years and was losing a large number of states. Following the party's victory at that election, he was elected FDP leader in the NRW Landtag, succeeding Gerhard Papke on May 15, 2012, and spent in opposition. He was elected one of Rösler's deputies in March 2013, alongside Sabine Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger and Holger Zastrow.
