Current workaround is to make sure that there is a newline after the first starting div tag.

This one comes down to the first line having two opening tags and one close tag. The parser doesn't realise that the first tag isn't closed and that is what messes it up.

I've managed to get a patch working but I'll see if I can clean it up a bit before I submit a PR

Regarding the test for the fix, the unordered list at the end is important. The markdown renders correctly if you omit the unordered list.

In [1]: x = '''
   ...: <div><div></div>
   ...: </div>
   ...: <div></div>
   ...: <div></div>
   ...: <div></div>
   ...: 
   ...: - A
   ...: '''
   ...: from markdown2 import markdown
   ...: print(markdown(x))
   ...: 
<div><div></div>

</div>

<ul>

<p><li>A</li>
</ul></p>


In [2]: x = '''
   ...: <div><div></div>
   ...: </div>
   ...: <div></div>
   ...: <div></div>
   ...: <div></div>
   ...: 
   ...: '''
   ...: from markdown2 import markdown
   ...: print(markdown(x))
<div><div></div>

<p></div></p>

<div></div>

<div></div>

<div></div>

Oh never mind, I see the test has the unordered list at the end. Sorry about that

[Crozzers]

No worries! I had originally omitted it, assuming it was unimportant but realised the mistake
