He was able to keep forcing elections until he won.

He literally did not win the election. As I just told you, he lost the election in 1932 and within a year he had essentially absolute power. Democracy didn't matter to the nazis, they took power when they were able to practically, after hitler was appointed chancellor by Hindenburg.
