Hitler was never actually elected by the German people to become Fuhrer he took the control in 1933. He ran for President in 1932 but lost to the current President, and was appointed Chancellor of Germany. When the Nazi's took over Germany in 1933 he was appointed by the party to become Fuhrer.
Chancellor was the top man in German Politics ( still is, they also have a president but he is a lower-level official, no US equivalent. Sorry to relate , Adolf Hitler was legitimately elected by the voting populace of Germany to the post of Chancellor- which once in, he expanded to Fuhrer ( Leader) and ReichsKanzler- Imperial or Realm chancellor- de facto- Dictator. Adolf was elected by the people- He did not March into Berlin with a Tank convoy! This is one of the tragic failures of ( People"s Government). In a different vein the Italian Empire was ditched- not by Mussolini ( he was already dead) the Communists, or the Neo-Nazis- but by our old friend (?) the Ballot Box- in l946.
He made passionate speeches promissing to save Germany's economy <-- Novanet
Hitler was never president of Germany, however, he became leader of the Third Reich (the so-called Thousand-Year Empire) in the 1930's. Specifically, he was appointed Chancellor on January 30th of the year 1933. Immediately after then-president Von Hindenburg's death on August 12th of the year 1934 he proclaimed himself Führer, as well. He remained in power till his suicide on April 30th of the year 1945. Hitler was elected as the Chancellor of Germany/The Third Reich in 1933.
