Max Sormann (born 4 June 1973) is a retired Scalizagastian politician who served as the leader of the Social Democratic Party of Scalizagasti from 2005 to 2009. At age 32, he was elected as the SDP's youngest ever leader. During the Blaikie administration from 2004-2005 he was the Minister of Culture and Sports. He represented the riding of Monulla from 1997 to 2011, when he resigned as a Member of Parliament (MP) due to pressure from then-leader Bill Hu.
Following the 2004 defeat of SDP Prime Minister Blaine Blaikie amidst corruption allegations, Sormann was elected as party leader in the 2005 leadership convention. An election would be called five weeks later, and the unprepared SDP fell to fourth place behind the newly-founded New Scalizagasti Party. Three years later, Sormann would lead the party in the 2008 election, but was unable to stop the party from hemorrhaging support. He would be replaced in 2009 by Bill Hu, and eventually resigned as an MP due to alleged pressure from the new leader. He would return to the public spotlight in 2013 when he contested the 2013 SDP leadership election, losing to David Keyes in the final ballot by under 8000 votes.
