BREAKING - UPC Wins A Fourth Term





UPC Wins A Fourth Term
UPC/GK seize another term in office

Written by Vor




The three-way Presidential election that opened yesterday, October 11, has just been concluded. UPC/GK, running for the third time together, have won a first-round victory against challengers Vor/Andusre and Ellenburg/Cordova I. 61 total votes were cast by Europeian citizens, down from last election's 66 votes, where UPC/GK ran uncontested. The winning ticket garnered 32 votes this time around, three votes over the majority required for a first-round victory. Vor/Andusre managed to collect 17 votes, while Ellenburg/Cordova I ended at 12 votes.

UPC will be serving as Europeian President for the fourth consecutive time, having won his first victory with running mate Sanjurika three terms prior in March, over 200 days ago. The topic of long-serving presidents was a significant subject of debate during the election, alongside (most prominently) debates on foreign policy and war prosecution.

The President and Vice President have scheduled a cabinet reveal show, in which they will announce the ministers they intend to nominate for office which are to be confirmed by the Europeian Senate. The show will be taking place on the Discord Stage in the Europeian server at 8PM EDT/12 AM GMT (exact timestampt viewable in your timezone in the Discord, check the #shows-n-streams channel).

Definitely a bummer that turnout was a little down given the excitement around the campaign, but overall it was a great election.

Only 61 votes is a bummer, but proportionally to our citizenship roster I think it's about right. Look at how many people lost citizenship this time around and re-applied within the last two or three days.
 
It was an exciting election and I really enjoyed reading the platforms of all the candidates, hopefully the turnout is just a blip!
