CLAIRON PICARD
 
ELECTIONS LEAVE FC WITHOUT MAJORITY
 
Governor General’s Palace, August 15, 5626: Elections in Royaume Uni de Kanjor saw a shift away from Federation Canrlle (FC)  which nevertheless still left it as the largest party.  The 390 seats in the Chamber of Deputies are now allocated as  187 FC, 121 Parti Social - Democrate (PSD), and 82 Union Hosienne -Democrate (UHD) with the largest gains going to PSD.
 
Governor General Michel Malfois was elected handily, and CLAIRON PICARD asked him what was likely to come next, and Malfois replied:
 

FC has lost its majority which really is no surprise, but since it has the most seats I will ask its party leader to try and form a government.  FC’s current Premier, Fabrice Courbet, is stepping aside and party leadership is meeting to determine a successor.
 
It is expected FC will approach UHD which like PSD is much less internationalist than FC. I can tell you from initial talks both are interested in keeping culture war issues to at a minimum and UHD is likely to want the Interior Ministry for its leader, Marcel Malateste, and for there to be an understanding involvement in military misadventures abroad unless attacked could well lead to dissolution of the coalition.
 
The PSD is less likely to be a partner of FC because it is seriously against cooperation with monarchies, and most of our trading partners are just that. 

But selection of a new FC premier candidate is the first task in the process.
