==Electoral System==
The National Assembly elects all of her 85 seats in a Simulated/Popular Vote Lottery in which the election system uses a 4:1 ratio of AES to Popular Vote. This election will use AES with the next also using it.
The main component of the AES is the popular vote which comprises 40% of the AES with other factors such as propaganda, party activity, Party member notability, bills proposed, etc composing the rest of the electorate. The AES is overseen by Matthew V. Independent Candidates function outside of the AES and only require 1/85th (1.18%) of the Popular Vote.
== Background ==
=== Plan 5 Controversy ===
On January 4th, 2022, the Minsiter of Infrastructure & Energy, Hanover, posted an Executive Order titled "Lavanda-Libeccio-Mediterraneo Bridge and Railroad Plan 5" which would build a series of bridges, that would connect the provinces of Libeccio, Mediterraneo and Lavanda Islands through the sea. 
While the Executive Order was welcomed by the Lt. Governor of Lavanda Islands Lux Jefferson, who was one of the authors of the Executive Order, the proposal enraged the Duke of Libeccio, Based_Autocrat (Lawrence) who was furious that he wasn't consulted and that the bridge would, in his opinion, greatly harm the environment. Based_Autocrat then made an announcement denouncing the plan, claiming that "When the people of Libeccio decide to go to a beach to enjoy the sea after an honest day of work or even tourists, they want to see the ocean and nature, not a massive railway bridge". 
To further call attention to the plan, Based_Autocrat then wrote an article in The Righteous Adorian, writing about the incident, and posting a caricature of Lux. Just a few hours later, the Head Judge Yannick vetoed the executive Order. After the Executive order was vetoed, Based_Autocrat quickly passed a the "Libeccian National Parks Establishment Act" in the National Assembly, which carried a hidden provision that stated that no bridges could be built on the southern Libeccian coast, making any future plans of a Lavanda-Libeccio-Mediterraneo bridge, impossible.
=== Governor Elections ===
In between the 67th and 68th general election, Gubernatorial elections were held.
==== Lavanda ====
Lavanda had 5 different candidates running. Previous Governor Arjona had decided not to seek a third term, and endorsed his Lt. Governor Lux Jefferson. Lux, Humbugg, Sethyy, and Daniel! ran for Governor. First round Humbugg (ACT) got 50%, while Lux (IND) got 31%. The other 19% was spread out among the other three candidates. Both candidates moved onto the second round, which was 50-50 with 76 votes, possibly the highest turnout gubernatorial election in Adorian history. The election then went into the National Assembly in which Lux won by a landslide. 
=== Libeccio ===
Only two candidates ran for Governor (Duke), incumbent Based Autocrat, otherwise known as Lawrence (CSM) and Tomi (SDP). Incumbent Duke Lawrence was able to win the election with 68.2% of the vote. 22 people voted.
==== Mediterraneo ====
Incumbent SoleSol decided to not run again and endorsed his Lt. Governor, Otto Von Oldrich. Lt. Otto (LDP) went up against relatively unknown Flo1234 (CSM). Otto won against Flo with 70% of the vote. 10 people voted.
==== Synaro ====
There was no incumbent that ran in this election since the last Governor resigned a few days before elections began. The candidates were Reeves (SDP), Glikko (ACT), and Mr. Money Man (ARP). Glikko won in the first round with 58.25% of the vote, compared to Reeves's 36.6%. 41 people voted in this election.
=== Party Changes ===
==== The Adorian Reform Party ====
On January 8th, 2022, the Adorian Reform Party announced that they would be disbanding. Party Leader Big Ben had this to say: 
“'There comes a time in a man’s life where he must admit defeat.'
These words mean so much to me as I party leader of the Adorian Reform Party, announce to this cruel cruel world that well we just ran out of steam. I formally announce the disbansion of the Adorian Reform Party. May god have mercy on our souls and our hearts. Goodbye Adoria. Here is one last poster. Our last words. 'Goodbye Adoria!'”
This happened shortly after Deputy Party Leader Green announced his resignation due to the party being dead.
==== The Democratic Movement of Europe and Adoria ====
A new party, based off of the DiEM25 movement was formed in Adoria, led by Party Leader Otto Von Oldrich, with Deputy Party Leaders Lux Jefferson and Daniel. The party was generally welcome by most Adorian parties, with the exception of the ACT. The DMEA stands for Environmentalism, Tech Sovereignty, Socialism, and European Federalism.
==== Liberal Democratic Party ====
Leadership elections took place, and it was announced that Bert had won leadership. This was mocked by many, especially by the SDP, since Bert had previously had ruined the SDP's chances in the 66th General Election as Party Leader.
