LDP getting ready for mass inner-party reform as drastic loss in Elections shocks Party

The May elections have resulted in a shock result especially for the LDP,the Assembly now has the Extremist Patriots and somewhat monarchist İmperialists as the new government and also two largest parties,the Presidency has also been won by the Patriotic League. The Former President suprisingly only managed to get the endorsement of the Conservatives and thr UKWF decided to run alone with no endorsement in a suprising decision. The Liberal Democratic Party’s candidate Haytham Kennedy not only failed in his Presidential Run with only 9 million votes,but the LDP under Haytham’s chairmanship became the fourth party in the Assembly,falling for the first time to just 37 Seats in the Assembly. Pundits point to the concessions given by the LDP to the leftists as a factor of ailenation of the LDP to the capitalists and rightists which opted to the Patriots or the İRCC,also the splitting of the moderate Liberal vote between the LDP and the NLP also was another factor. Meanwhile the LDP is now split between two-blocs,the traditionalists which now believe in holding the status-quo and therefore Haytham Kennedy as Chairman,while the bloc of Reformists believe in reforming and re-energising the LDP to a staunch Libertarian stand-point with Sarah Furhat in charge. This power-struggle will clearly go on until new Primaries are held,which Kennedy denied any intentions of holding. Meanwhile Sarah Furhat has also made an announcement,The former Premier has engaged Jason Kenway,a diplomat of Kalistan who has served in Hutori in the name of the Kalistani government.
The couple are planning a wedding pretty soon and Jason might find a path into the LDP with Sarah should she manage to take over power
