Results of the parliamentary election

Bannerhafen, Presidential Palace, the faces of the officials of the Kommenda administration show us what the polls have been teasing all year long. The VVP sits at a meager 29% of the vote meaning a hurtful -24% for the formerly dominant party of the nation. In addition to huge losses in the Nationalrat, the presidency has also gone to the DRP candidate Vanessa zum Clenonberg. While the presidential was very close due to the personal popularity of Robert Kommenda, in the end it means a period without the VVP anywhere near power. Especially considering that before the election the DRP has already made advances toward the two centrist farmer parties Landbund and Groene Boeren Bond who seemed interested in spot in government. The one responsible for the formation of a new government now is designated President Vanessa zum Clenonberg. The 36 year old had an exemplary life until now, she was one of the youngest legal sciences alumni of the University of Merenbürg and has additionals degree in cultural as well as economic sciences. After a brief episode of teaching at the her alma mater, she joined the DRP where she quickly found followers which lead her to the pole position today. We are excited to see what this new era will bring to the Dual Republic. The DRP were too busy partying and the VVP didnt answer our calls so sadly we dont have any speeches to share.

Now on to the other partys, almost all parties claimed to be the big winners of this election. Five new parties now join the fray in parliament, most surprising both farmer parties have managed to gain sizable shares of the electorate which only shows the extent the food price crisis had on the results, which is visibly enormous. Aside from the LB and the GBB, the two extremist parties now appear as minor political forces but nontheless managed to enter the formal political landscape aside from local or regional elections. A peculiar sight is the "resurgent" TKP which managed to gain exactly one seat, barely gathering enough support for a mandate. It's led by the half-lodamese Jerry Thaller-Dinkelberg, an eccentric moderate conservative who has mostly fished among the voters of conspiracy theorists, especially those warning about some yeudi plot. The SDP may have lost votes but actually held quite well considering that this election represents a comeplete shake-up of Dual Republican politics. What political analysts all shared during various TV post-result announcement discussions was the VVP-hostile landscape, almost none of the parties have a reasonably compatible views with the conservative heavyweight, most actually say that the two center-left parties DRP and SDP actually are the most compatible aside from the centrist Landbund which technically would be a viable option but seems to lead a vendetta against the VVP which they refer to as "anti-rural folk crooks."
