Ardue: In the first ever trifecta election (presidency, parliament and regional parliaments) the National Party of former economic Barney Newman has won a resounding victory, capturing newly 42% of the vote in the Chamber elections which had resulted in 130 seats, just short of a outright majority. In the senate the party, which sees itself as Hosian Democratic and conservative, captured 45 seats and nearly 55% of the vote, winning just 6 seats shy of a majority in the upper chamber. Their presidential candidate Alana Davis made it to the second round of voting but, a week after the first, was defeated by independent candidate Caolán Kindellan, a Kilani that had gained the support of the LP, KL, GB and several local parties and ran on a moderate catch-all platform. Caolán Kindellan will become the nations first Kilani president in decades and has pledged to be a impartial figure and stay true to his independent affiliation. National Party leader Newman addressed NP supporters shortly after the results came in, promising them that "a new dawn is upon New Englia" and that "the trust given to me and the NP as a whole is a trust we shall not let go in vain. It is time to fundamentally better New Englia and strengthen our bond, our institutions and our economic for the benefit of all." The National Party had ran on a platform of a strong mixed economy with a guiding role for the government, not joining the Dovani Pact, enacting economic reform that allows more economic opportunity for private bussiness and enacting or keeping in place conservative social laws in line with the religion of the country. In contrast the now main oppossition party, the Liberal Party, ran on a platform of advanced civil rights, a free market and joining the Dovani Pact. The party was socially much different from the NP while its economic policies somewhat allign.
The Kilani League, a party watched very closely by observers, managed to win most seats in the majority Kilani regions in the south, managing to gather nearly 42 seats in the Chamber which corresponds to being the third party. Its leader, Zack O'Lenaghan, has already pledged to not work with any federal government and "focus solmenly on advancing Kilani topics and benefits." One party that has become somewhat of a kingmaker is the Democratic Union of Jason O'Madden. While performing relatively poorly on the federal level the party has gathered enough seats in both the Chamber and Senate to be able to form a coalition government with the National Party. As the DU is right of center such a coalition seems plausible, allowing the NP to form a center-right government. However O'Madden has already stated that for such a government to take shape the NP should also give something to the DU especially on economic topics "its clear there is common ground but the DU does seek some form of concession in the economic arena, as we would like to see a more liberal economic approach." But Newman already hinted at the possibility of cooperation, stating his party "is always ready to strike compromise." In the regional elections the KL managed to win a outright majority in Sliabh Ard while the NP did so in South Englia. In Ardtailte the Assembly needs to find a compromise in order to form a government, with negotiations likely to start next week.
It is expected that newly elected President Kindellan will appoint a government within weeks after consulting with party leaders to see which government can command a majority in Parliament.
