Nadiya

Yesterday Nadiyans headed to the polls to decide whether or not they accepted the drafted constitution written by the third Constitutional Convention which would turn Nadiya from a capitalist laissez faire confederation to Soviet communist one, but voters in Kozacchyna also voted on their country's status in the Confederation following the success of a popular initiative.

While parties like the Servants of Nadiya and the Princess and Tsarina Association of Nadiya campaigned on the no vote, their rivals the ANCP and SRs supported the yes vote as the new constitution would fullfil one of their most important electoral promises. After the last voting office closed in Radin and the first rounds of counting came from Vrosnok, the no vote was leading ahead by 13% before being catched and outpaced by the yes vote as votes from Kozacchyna and Brakav were being reported. At midnight, the NCEFT declared the victory of the adoption of the new constitution and proclamation of the Confederation of Soviet Socialist Republics as 68,3% of the population voted yes, 30% voted no, and 2,7% placed blank ballots. 

However in Kozacchyna, citizens were also asked if they wanted the republic to remain a member of the Confederation or initiate the process of leaving it. The referendum was organized after an organization know as the Kozaki Sovereignist Association after they collected 683 thousand votes and called onto the NCEFT to hold a referendum in Kozacchyna since they met the requirement of 500 thousand signatures necessary for a regional referendum to be held. The People's Electoral Agency, Kozacchyna's independent electoral authority, announced the crushing victory of the unionist option gathering 94,6% of the votes while 3,3% voted for independence.

These results across both Nadiya and Kozacchyna show that more and more people not only identify themselves as Nadiyan more than anything but also that support for confederation has never been greater as the country heads toward celebrating its 100th anniversary.
