CCU presidential election, 2039

Following disagreements between the For the People and Union Alliance parties, For the Union split up into the original two parties. Duscko became the de facto For the People candidate, later winning easily the primaries. Union Alliance held primaries, won by another candidate. Toi Koehler remained the Freedom nominee, though winning less easily than the previous four years.
This marks the first election since 2023 in which the Union Party finishes second in the Senate, and only the second ever time for such occurrance. However, Union led second with a higher percentage of 33% in 2023. The Union Alliance stated that "in others weakness, it is time for Union to lead up a 2043 election victory."

Following eight elections spanning from 2019 to 2047, with the current format, the CCU announced that the system would change effective as of 2051. With the announcement of the new system, and the end of Vasquez's (first right-wing) 8-year two terms, the members of the alliance announced their seperation from the Union Party, effective immediately. This would mark the Union Party's first solo election since their third-place result in 2027.
Each party must receive at least 3.50% of total votes in order to enter the Senate. A total of 5,620,473 votes were cast throughout the election voting period, with 231,011 false votes being invalidated due to irregularities within their voting forms. This number was later corrected to 6,049,954 votes. 63 votes are required to form a government within the CCU.

Controversially, the Independence party chose to vote for neither candidates, leaving Koehler 1 vote short of forming a government. Talks with Union were stalled, and came to no avail. Rossiya's demands could not be made or met, and Global Union was considered "unreasonable". Talks were attempted with Dang's Independence party, with Dang finally agreeing to recommend Koehler.
Toi Koehler was elected through the election, serving his second term overall. The election marked his seventh, following one unsuccesful and two succesful VP elections, as well as two unsuccesful and one succesful presidential election.
== 2055 ==
The threshold to enter the Senate was decreased to 2.50% this election, to give smaller parties more chances.
Primaries saw Rosanna Vasquez lose reelection after serving as party leader since her narrow 2043 election victory, and fair landslide primaries victory. Crowe, who served as her VP twice, had run under her ticket which lost. Jarrett	Hagen (50.9%) narrowly beat Vasquez (49.1%) to become party leader. Koehler voluntarily stepped down as Freedom Party leader, to allow very popular Freedom ex-leader Gabriella Gould to make her return, as a result of no term limits. She won elections mainly uncontested.
Independence leader Dang, announced that her political CCU career would come to an end, having attempted to lead the CCU since 2019 in three election occasions; 2019, winning 38 seats; 2027, winning 24 and just 10 in 2051. However, it was her party that allowed Koehler to form a government, making her Independence party 'the party for independents [in the new election era]', more prominent. Jolene Pinckney (50.5%) beat Soila Saenz (49.5%) to become new party leader, in second round primaries. However, polling saw that the party would lose many seats in the election, barely passing the threshold.
Haskins, remained strong with For the People, though failing to win the first round and only winning round two with 51.2% of votes, compared to oponnent's 48.8%. Haskins stated that "at a time where [standing out] is more important than ever, it is important that we start negotiations with other parties in order to attain as many seats as possible, which otherwise could be left behind."
Rossiya primaries would not be held until after every 8 years, with Yoder remaining leader, while losing support with many voters. Lloyd also won Global Union primaries with 60.7% votes, the biggest for all the primaries in the election course.
Freedom stated that an "alliance was not something which they thought was about 'freedom of the [Union]', and would not do such. For the People confirmed an alliance with the already-allianced party Left Alliance. The Union Party also confirmed an alliance with Go Right.
5,909,448 votes were registered, a decrease from the 6,049,954 in the previous election. However, as in 2051, the number was later corrected to 6,009,448, though a smaller decrease. However, the issue was stated to be due to false recognition of 'invalid votes'.

With the Freedom Party winning the government vote, Gould would serve a record-breaking 12 years as leader in the government. Gould also confirmed that she would not run again for party leader, with this serving as her final term as Leader (Presidential) of the CCU. Koehler reiterated her statement, saying that "he would not run either." As a result, polls predicted a big stumble for the Freedom Party in 2059, with all establishment Freedom'ers not running, including Kristen Delgado, who declined to do so 'due to already serving her chance.'
== 2059 ==
Following Gould's (as well as Toehler's) exit from CCU poltics, the election race became much more wide and open. Rossiya held its second primaries ever, with no candidate receiving a full majority, that was won by Rolf Yoder by a slim score of 50.03%. Initially, he was projected to have won with 50.07%, but the number appeared to be even smaller. Yoder said he "heard the people's voices, which [support] him, and said he could be a representative for all." Yoder would not face reelection now until 2067, unless he himself would step down or his party was overwhelmingly against him; neither were possible in the near future.
Trenton Samuels was also reelected as Better Together's leader, by a margin of 51.07%, thanking his voters for supporting him [again]. The Anti Union Party held a motion of confidence, failing, with no confidence for its system allowing four leaders. As a result, primaries were held to determine one leader, with Nevada Griffiths announcing that she would opt not to run for leadership. Ultimately, Meryl Wilt and Leena Brittain qualified to the second round due to no clear majority winner. Previous co-leader Rolande Blackwell failed to stand out among the pack with just 21.3% of the vote. Ultimately, Meryl Wilt beat Leena Brittain with her 52.3% compared to Brittain's 47.7%. Brittain wished Wilt luck as a new solo leader of the party. She confirmed that she "would work hard to prevent extreme Unionism of CCU as well as Corruption, representing both parties."
With the Global Union (slowly) rising in the elections, the party easily voted for reelection of Jerry Lloyd, with him receiving 62.7% of the vote, 2% higher than his 2055 reelection. Jong Gamble won Independence elections, by a score of 65.36%, the highest of the election course. Pinckney had won in 2055 with 50.5%, but confirmed that she would not run for reelection due to dissatisfaction within the "Independentors" of the party.
In Union primaries, many praised Jarrett Hagen's potential policies, and stated he was "a victim of the impossible vote, with no one being able to defeat Freedom's "bullshit"" He was reelected in the first round with a score of 50.1%, but his opponnents were far from his number. With the highest opponent, only have 29.3% of the total vote.
Having been the first Elected CCU President, Elden Dunham announced that his "return to CCU politics was timely" and that "he was ready to take back the CCU right back to For the People Party." He won elections in first round by 59.6%. Haskins herself had confirmed her intention to not run for reelection, due to her decline in popularity.
In Freedom primaries, Malia Gonsalves and Arvilla Mccauley battled each other in the second round of primaries, with Gonsalves winning by 52.5%, compared to Mccauley's 47.5%.
Due to disagreements with internal changes in respective parties, Veracity and Breakthrough Parties announced that they would not run allianced. This later controversially turned out to be the downfall of the Breakthrough Party, as it would have made it into the Senate had they stayed with Veracity, which also downfalled. Dunham confirmed that the Left Alliance would remain apart of the "For the People Alliance" in elections. Union kept its alliance with Go Right. Anti Union-Corruption remained strong, and together.
A total of 5,777,680 votes were casted throughout the election, which was validated shortly. It marks the smallest number since the introduction of the new election system.

Ultimately, For the People recommended Malia Gonsalves from Freedom Party, and Dunham stepped down as leader, with Mia Haskins serving as Acting Leader until elections in 2063.
On January 13, 2060, Wilt announced that her party opted to exit the coalition. However, the coalition-government remained strong with 76 seats. However, the following day, Haskins announced her support for Wilt's decision and confirmed that she (and her party) would also withdraw. The coalition government remained with 42 seats, and with Freedom refusing to recommend For the People's Haskins, she would remain Interim President with lack of support until an election in 20 April 2060 (slightly more than three months).
== 2060 ==
On January 17, 2060, it was confirmed that an election would occur on April 20, 2060. It marks the first time an election was held less than four years after the previous and unscheduled. The Freedom Party confirmed that this did not constitute new primaries. Elden Dunham confirmed that he would give his campaign another try, ultimately ending Haskins term as Acting Leader of For the People Party. All other parties confirmed they wouldn't run primaries either.
However, as the source of the issue was the 2059 election, the election was limited to parties which had ran in the 2059 elections. However, they were allowed to run as coalitons, that weren't present in 2059.
The For the People Party, announced some new plans in leadership in case elected, and as such, the Green Party joined the Alliance. This put the For the People Party in projection to lead the Senate with most seats (For the People Alliance would lead with 29.24% in 2059 with extended Alliance). Furthermore, the Revolyutsiya Party announced that they would not contest the election, thus sitting it out though endorsing Rossiya (though not merging/coalitioning). The Breakthrough and Veracity Parties announced they'd return as a coalition, considering what could've been in 2059. For the first time, they were known as Breakthrough-Veracity, rather than Veracity first, done for better organization.
This election marked a record low for the right-wing bloc, and Union stated that 'appropriate actions shall be taken in 2023.' Marking his third consecuctive election loss, Hagen was predicted to be beaten in primaries by another candidate.

With the For the People Party gaining more momentum, and its supporter Anti Union-Corruption, as well, the CCU stated that the vote would be on left-wing For the People and right-wing Union. Freedom opted to vote for Dunham, unable to recommend Hagen due to Gambles' and Wilt's support for Dunham, with Hagen then just 63 votes, 2 short. Dunham would then serve as President until another election in 2063, as the CCU stated that 'keeping an active election schedule was [necessary]'. This would bring Dunham's office time to 11 years.
This marks the first time For the People won since Dunham's reelection in 2023, with Dunham the only sitting For the People President, with others failing to do such a task.
|}}
== 2063 ==
With Dunham serving as the Incumbent CCU Leader (and For the People Party leader), the race initially seemed closed. However, the further the date, the less popular the party became. 
The Rossiya Party failed to pass a motion of no confidence on current/incumbent leader Rolf Yoder, who won reelection in 2059 in a term lasting until 2067 unless lack of confidence. The Better Together Party hold primaries, which were won by Trenton Samuels again in first round, with a lower percentage of 50.36% - down 0.71% from 2059. The Green Party held primaries, with the Incumbent Leader having failed to reach the second round due to several controversies and disagreements. Karla Sanchez and Brenda	Edwards led the first round with 31.4% and 29.8% respectively, with Incumbent Leader Joaquin Briseno having trailed behind with 29.3%, losing qualification by just .5%, and lead of first round by 2.1%. A recount changed a number/few votes, but was not enough to change the percentage, just going from 29.34(1)% to 29.312%. Other candidates, including many write-in, failed to each much votes, totaling up to 9.5%. Sanchez won the second round with 72.3%, compared to Edwards' 27.7%, with Sanchez's landslide attributed to her 'strength in unifying the Greens.' With Global Union having seen record gains in 2060, Lloyd was reelected in first round by a percentage of 78.32%, with 7.7% voting 'none of the above' and 13.98% to smaller candidates, which did not agree with Lloyd's strategy, or doing so but desiring leadership (or cleaner methods,etc.etc.). Dunham won For the People Party primaries with 55.7% in first round, beating candidates with visions of 'moving forward', or 'none of the above'. In 2060, the Revolyutsiya Party opted not to run, and by 2062, some factions formed disagreements within the party and committee/rules. By 2063, the Committee confirmed that the party had disbanded, with many of its supporters having decided to go for the lighter Rossiya, as well as some to Union and little to Global Union, reportedly. Linda Aguilar was reelected leader of the Breakthrough Party by 60.2%. Federico Palumbo was also reelected leader of Veracity Party by 52.7%. With the Independence Party seeing a record low of 4 seats in 2060, Gamble lead the first round, but was unable to receive the majority to be called winner (39.73% vs Ahern's 24.98%). The second round saw Eldon Ahern beat Gamble by 50.7%, compared to her 49.3%. Go Right held primaries, which were resulted in Jae Hammer's reelection with 55.1%. Makeda Conyers remained leader of the Truth Party, with primaries expected to take place in 2064. Gayle Mauldin remained leader of the No Allegiance Association, with primaries expected to take place in 2065. Jordon Mathias, the Incumbent Leader of One Matter Party, confirmed he would not contest the primaries. As a result, Briana Stroud won primaries with 66.3% of votes. Others could not receive more than 14.1%. 
Nikole Mercado announced the creation of the Reform Party, lead by herself, which would contest the election. Nikki Copley also announced the founding of the Blackout Party to contest the election. The Communist Party was also announced, with primaries held between Rory Ferraro and Devon Espinoza, with the former winning by 52.3%. Gayle Mayes announced the creation of the Centre Party, which was later renamed to the Moderate Party.
Karla Sanchez announced that the Green Party would step down from the For the People Alliance, due to several policy disagreements, under new leadership. The For the People Party and Left Alliance reconfirmed their alliance together. As did Go Right, with the Union Party. Breakthrough-Veracity confirmed to run together again, after narrowin(g)ly losing the Senate in 2060. Anti-Union - Corruption also confirmed their continuation with their increasing success. A last-minute continued alliance was confirmed between Better Together and Truth Party.
With the Union Party having adapted a new system, a leadership review of confidence was held on leader Jarrett Hagen. 47% voted in favor, while 53% voting against. As a result, Union primaries were called, with Hagen being exempt from running. No interim leader would suffice in the meanwhile, with the Union Party being temporarily leaderless, and therefore all decisions of the party would be 'direct democracy style' with members voting on each decision made, until a new leader would win the primaries. 
The Freedom Party also adapted a system of confidence. Gonsalves was favored by 49.2%, while 50.8% were against. As a result, the Freedom Party Committee (FPC) called a primary election to find a new leader, with no Interim Leader serving, with the new leader voted to become next leader, none in between. Gonsalves was also exempt from running in the primaries. Gould and Koehler both confirmed respectively, that they would not seek running, as were done their CCU political career.
=== Union Party primaries ===

Following her primaries victory, Mayfield stated that "the Freedom Party would work strong and united to lead the CCU again - and without the need of a unnecessary alliance."
=== General election ===
The first debate, which allowed parties with at least 1 seat in the Senate, featured For the People Alliance, Freedom, Union-Go Right, Anti-Union - Corruption, Global Union, Rossiya, Independence and Green Party (in case more than 10 parties would have a seat or more, it would be limited to the top 10). The second debate, which only allowed parties with 10 seats or more, featured For the People Alliance, Freedom and Union-Go Right.
Adele Mayfield became the new President of CCU under Freedom Party with 76 seats, to Pauley's 40. Dunham shortly announced his resignation as leader of the For the People Party, and confirmed that his CCU career was, finished.
Following the election, the Anti-Union - Corruption parties announced that they would merge for the next election, as well as officially before. Resilience Party was mentioned as a potential name for the party. Other smaller parties were also allegedly in talks to join (merged by) the party, with no coalitions instead.

=== Aftermath ===
Elden Dunham shortly announced his exit from CCU politics following his defeat in the election, with Devon Reiter announced as the Interim Leader of the For the People Party. The Left Alliance also announced that they would leave the For the People Alliance, losing For the People (former Alliance) 3 seats. Meryl Wilt announced that the Anti-Union - Corruption would now be known as the Resilience Party. Shortly after, the party confirmed alongside the Left Alliance that the latter would join it, totaling them to a new record of 10 seats, qualifying them to the '10+ big/major candidates debate'. The party color changed to E51010 (red).

== 2067 ==
No leadership review was called for in the Freedom Party, with Mayfield having a high approval rating within party members as well as general public. Pauley as well, was not contested, with the Union Party having received its most seats since the introduction of new electoral system, and since Vasquez's reelection in 2047. For the People Party primaries would be held in 2067, with Interim Leader Devon Reiter confirming he would not run for Party Leader. Rossiya Party Leader Rolf Yoder, who lead the party since 2051, was up for reelection having narrowly won 2059 primaries by 50.03%. To avoid being 'defeat', Yoder confirmed that he would not contest the leadership election, giving the party a new leader since its founding. Eldon Ahern, who won 2063 primaries by 50.7%(R2) against Incumbent Leader Jong Gamble, announced that he would not run for reelection due to his "belief that real 'Independence', means allowing the so-called party to have a new leader standing every election." He was praised, and the IPC (Independence Party Committee) stated that the idea was being looked into for consideration, but noted that it is up to each leader to decide whether they would like to run further, and voters if they approve, by voting for them. Wilt, who co-lead the Anti-Union Party from 2055 to 2059, and solely since 2059, led the Resilience Party's first leadership review by 63%. She then stated that "everyone [party] would have a role in this one." With the Global Union Party losing 3 seats in the 2063 election, marking its worst result since the introduction of new electoral system, Lloyd still managed to win a leadership review, but by 50.7% to 49.3% opposition. Lloyd stated that "the Global Union would be looking to 'cause real damage' at 2067 elections, by getting record number of seats for the party. Chuck Georgiy was named leader of Rossiya Party after winning election by 55.3%. Devina O'Neil was named leader of Independence Party, after winning primaries second round by 60.7%. Having received 0.04% for the Blackout Party in its debut election, she won a leadership review by 59%, with the party establishment still rooting for her "potential (sic)" higher success. Stroud survived a leadership review by 52%, giving the party a slightly better result in 2063. With Ferraro having received a record-shattering 1.08% in Communist debut, she received 72.5% in a leadership review. Following his decision to give Better Together representation as part of the Union Party, he received 52% in a leadership review, before being merged abruptly. As a result, he was designated as the Better Together member/senator, who would either have to face primaries against a Truth member, or both be admitted, with polling estimated both. Both Breakthough-Veracity party leaders also survived, by 55% and 51%, before their merge, becoming Union senators (allowing them to enter the Senate for the first time ever.) With Gayle Mauldin having received a record amount of votes for the No Allegiance Association (though least percentage-wise), he was reelected via leadership review by 58%. Mercado won a review by 77%, having given 1.75% in debut performance. Sanchez survived a review by 67%, giving the party its biggest result (outside the For the People Alliance). Gayle Mayes survived a leadership review by 63%, given the party 2.10% in votes in debut performance, for Moderate Party. 
Milo Danielson announced the creation of the Blood Party, which became more prominent, after naming some extreme policies and low-key attacks on some leading left-wing parties. Cherlyn Hardison announced the creation of a Justice Party, and attacked some right-wing parties for "their policies." Johnie Brackett announced that she would create the Independent Party, due to her "feels that the Independence Party, was not representing all the Independents." After some lower-polling numbers for Independence, O'Neil confirmed of a pact, and Brackett announced that she filed out, joining O'Neil's campaign team to "freshen some ideas".
However, only candidates who received 1.50% or more in the 2064 election were included as an option in polls, as others were "unlikely/less likely to make the threshold to enter the Senate". As a result, some candidate parties would have a lesser (or higher score) in the actual election.
In case no candidate were to receive at least 50.01% (majority) in the first round, all candidates with 25% or more would qualify/progress to the second round (if only one/none, reduced to 20% and so on). From the second round, without a majority, only the top two candidates would progress to the third round, if necessary.
9 (56%) females and 7 males (44%) contested the election as leaders of their respective parties, as in 2063 but with some others replaced(merged and different). In retrospect, 2060 elections saw 7 males (64%) and 4 females (36%).
The CCU also noted of a potential 25-limit parties for future elections with 16 again, potentially limiting to ones with seats, polling figures and others who register their party before. However, the CCU later outlawed this, noting that there were only 16 now nevertheless as well as ensuring that the Union would remain a fair democracy for all and all .

=== Polling ===
An alliance/bloc/party needs to receive 59 seats for a majority government. Campaigning season (officially/ [ [ unofficially/more often/traditionally ] ] ) began in 2066, with polls from before not counting towards any qualifications.
On January 23, 2066, the Breakthrough–Veracity coalition of parties after failing to enter the Senate since the introduction of new electoral system in 2051. The leaders of both parties were assured seats, added to the list, for their Senate debut.
A breakthrough moment between For the People and Resilience, happened with Wilt testing Hirsch's loyalty to his party establishment, which resulted in Wilt gaining a strong lead over him, during the debate. Additionally, Mayfield showed her strength as leader of Freedom Party and CCU, gaining off Union leader Pauley. Additionally, Reform Party leader Mercado showed her strength. As well, Independence Leader O'Neil showed off the party's independence with partisan politics, gaining off other parties.
On July 2, 2066, the Better Together–Truth coalition parties followed suit in merging with the Union Party to show its bonafides toward a successful Union coalition. They would be allocated 1 or 2 seats from Union, depending on the amount, otherwise a primary would determine whether the Better Together or Truth former leader would enter the Senate as a Union Senator. As a condition, the merge would be effective for the 2067 election, and would need to be further approved and voted on past that date, for a 2071 split or merge. 
The For the People Party attempted an alliance with Moderate Party, however leader Mayes stated that they "wish to act independently of other parties, to ensure for moderate stances." As a result, For the People contested elections without any alliance for the first time since 2051, 16 years. Sanchez also confirmed that Green Party "wished to stand for their beliefs, without acting as part of an alliance, as it stood strong alone." Other contesting parties, including No Allegiance Association, Communist, One Matter, Blackout and the new Blood, as well as Justice, also did not opt to run as part of any alliance. At one point, talks were made between One Matter and Blackout, however they stalled, and ultimately did not lead to anything.
With polling numbers decreasing, the For the People Party and Resilience Party both respectively tried to lobby the Moderate Party in January 2067 prior to the second debate to join for the 2067 election, or have them suspend their 2067 campaign, to no avail. Moderate Party leader Mayes stated he was "concerned in the direction that the left-wing parties were going, and as such, would show the strength in the public's will for a moderate government." Mayes also stated that polling numbers did not reflect how well Moderate Party would actually be doing, noting that it also "excludes other parties registered by the CCU." The Resilience Party also made an attempt at a merge or coalition or suction with the Justice Party, but the leader stated that the party "needed a taste of its own at first." The deal provided by Wilt, however, was for no seats but with a representative from the party, such as the leader, to provide assistance with some potential proposals.
Additionally, an idea was brought of a potential Union-Go Right merger, however the GRPC (Go Right Party Committee) turned down the idea, stating that "the current form of the coalition has worked for both parties since its introduction before the 2055 elections. As such, no accommodation will be considered at this time, unless proposed at the annual UPC (Union Party Convention), at which a consideration would be made at a basis-to-basis-idea. The UPC also stated that "no additional mergers would be initiated at this time." The Blood Party later proposed to form a coalition with Blood Party, taking them away from Union, however the GRPC stated that "such advancement from them [Blood Party] would not be considered nor taken seriously at any costs whatsoever."
Nikole Mercado, who narrowly failed to make the second debate by 1 poll, criticized the CCU's decision of continuing to only have 1 debate for the lesser-polling or successful candidates, as well as for all, noting that 'quarterly leadership requires more than just two polls.' She stated that the CCU's stance was, per usual, to 'delegitimize and limit the contenders to typical establishment parties." Leaders of others followed her suit, stating their belief that more debates are necessary to 'gradually' eliminate candidates from them, rather than going from square one to two (debate). The CCU stated that its deadline had 'artificially' passed years ago, and that they had already added this to the next annual CCU meeting, in which if passed, would apply this to the 2071 elections, or the next election in case of snap, starting 2068. No number was specified, but Merkado suggested 'that at least 4 debates were necessary, if not more." Merkado noted that while 4 was a good starting point, the CCU should 'listen to public opinion, perhaps via internal polling or focus group(s)."
Sanchez stated that the Green Party's performance in the PollBusiness polling had proven the existence of "a green movement within the CCU." She stated that "most analysts and pollsters, as well as other establishment parties, had (and are) 'undermined and underpredicted the Green power moving forward." Sanchez also stated that no coalition or merger (a merger would 'never be done at this stage') could be remotely considered in the future 'without giving extensive power and control to the potential Green Party faction'. However, Sanchez noted that the Green Party stood well on its own, and therefore, would not look towards or seek a coalition, unless the 'worst scenario paints out', however Sanchez stated that 'our election is optimistic for us.'
Some outsider parties started calling for pushing the election by 1 month, to give more time for campaigning. Mayfield, as leader and majority bloc leader, stated that 'such predetermined dates would have absolutely no apparent reason to change.' However, Global Union Party threw their support towards, it, followed by Rossiya Party, giving it 8 seat-support, at 7%, despite 66% support needed. 2 Independents simultaneously agreed to support it, stating that 'a little extra time could give more time for post-debate settling,' marking 10 seat-support at 9%. The Union Party finally agreed to throw their support to it later, marking 42-seat support for postponement, at 36%. After multiple negotiations, the For the People Party also confirmed that they would agree to a one-month extension, bringing the support to 63 seats (54%). 77 seats would be needed to perform the move. Another Independent stated that "this would be a move of democracy", throwing his support, for 64, and following his statement, the remaining two Independents confirmed their support, totaling at 66 seats (57%). The Resilience Party stated that "they had always been against corruption or extreme establishmentism, and as such, would throw all their support towards it." This marked 76 seats, bringing the total to a rounded 66%, but nevertheless 1 seat away. As a result, the Freedom Party held all stakes. Mayfield stated that "such unprecedented support towards the postponement of the election had led to discussions, as well within the upper body of the CCU, regarding holding debates in the future earlier to the election to ensure the validity and fairness of the vote." Mayfield subsequently confirmed that, 'of course', all of Freedom Party would inexplicitly support the postponement, and the vote later passed in the Senate 116-0.
Per CCU Act, an election could only be postponed or delayed up to two weeks prior. As such, the CCU Senate voted in the latest day possible, on February 27, awaiting Mayfield's statement, to ensure the lobbying process would prove successful with just one chance to vote. The law was enacted the following day, February 28. As a result, the election would instead take place on Wednesday, April 13. The law was considered "a win for democracy" by some, as well as analysts.
On March 13, 2067, the unanimous CCU/EC announced that the Global Union Party under longtime leader Jerry Lloyd would be barred from contesting the election. This was as a result of a longterm investigation, which showed "numerous signs of [electoral] fraud as well as 'endorsement lobbying' and missuage of funds." The Global Union Party unequivocally denied these claims, stating that "any unlawful attempt to rid the party of it's Great Leader, would not prove effective." However, a High Court ruling later resulted in the party to be barred from contesting the election, due to its numerous attempts to ignore CCU and EC rulings. The GUPC stated that "what had been done was unlawful and undemocratic, and that the party would work towards revoking the status." Per CCU laws, any barred party would only be effective for the coming election, and would be allowed to contest the next, regardless the date. Despite rumors of a Union Party endorsement, the Global Union Party stated that "there was no party quite like us supporting our cause." However, an analysis noted that the Union Party would benefit the most from the withdrawal, and also the Reform Party to a lesser extent.
With gaining Union Party momentum, talks between the Independence Party and Union Party initiated, with some moderate/centre-right leaning Independents potentially favouring a Union government. This would mark the first time ever the Independence Party/Independents were divided on the leader (party). Mayfield stated that "the left bloc needed to fight this election, stronger than ever before, to prevent the outbreak from the right bloc." On March 19, 2067, two top Independence Party members reached a deal with their Union Party recommendation. Another did as well, but would only prove effective if Independents gain 7 seats, which was considered a "longshot". With at least 4 seats, Union Party would benefit, however, 6 seats were also reportedly a "possibility for 3". A Forward Party was also "considered to contest the next election, whether as renamed, new, merged, reformed, or elsewise/elsewhere."
With the Union Party rising, and the right/centre bloc rising, Freedom Party leader Mayfield made some new promises, in hopes of retaining more support.
For the People Leader Chase Hirsch tried again to persuade the Moderate Party to step down, to give them top positions within For the People Party, however Moderate once again declined, noting that "there was a 0% chance for a For the People government."
An analysis also noted that "the parties excluded from polling are [underestimated] and could be dark horses to enter the Senate." These parties also demanded change to the CCU, stating that the "polling system had been affecting the race, with these parties having no seats nor poll access, therefore being "banned from qualify for debates", calling this move 'unconstitutional and undemocratic'." The CCU voted on the issue, with it failing 7–9. As such, these parties pledged to create a "dark horse debate" for parties which fail to receive 1.5% of the vote in the 2067 election.
However, the GUPC later met and decided on having a temporal leader to contest the 2067 election. In a 17–14 vote, the Global Union Party Commitee decided to go leaderless for the election, becoming the first party ever to do so. The High Court reconvened and declared the party acceptable to contest the election, on March 25, 2067, nearly 3 weeks prior to election. The Union Party was expected to lose some seats as a result,which had been gained as a result of GUP being barred prior.
An analysis of the polling noted that the Independence Party, as well as the Green Party, could "cost the election", with one or two of these parties resulting in the election of either Freedom Party or Union Party. Notably, the Green Party "could guarantee the election of the Freedom Party" if passed the threshold, otherwise, a Union-led right(/centre)-wing coalition could threaten the Freedom Party-led left-centre coalition. As well and additionally, should the Independence Party only gain 5 seats, it would benefit Freedom, but 6 (especially) or 7, would help the Union Party get elected. Based on this, Mayfield would need to hope that Green Party would prove successful, and hope Independence only gets 5 seats, or if too popular, 7, or more, but not 6. Additionally, it would be key for Mayfield, for a stronger coalition to survive potential party coups, or moves. In any scenario, Union Party would be unlikely to win a strong coalition, directly reliaying on 6 seats from Independence Party. However, analysts from previous elections noted that polling could underestimate the Rossiya Party, and especially the breakout performance of Global Union Party, with their leaderless "gimick".
The Global Union Party held a campaign with advanced technology and slideshows, with many members of the Global Union Party holding their own campaigns, as well as many with several or many members campaigning at one larger event(s). Jerry Lloyd decided not to campaign, as such would cause a CCU ban from running in 2071. However, rumors floated of a vote that could take place to continue the Global Union Party as leaderless, which if passed, would be effective then. However, it would have to be voted upon for each election (also if sooner/later [snap?]). The GUP denied these claims, stating that the current focus was contesting the 2067 election in hopes of securing a right-wing bloc victory, to allow the GUP to be part of a (coalition) government for the first time ever. (Also first ever Union/right victory in a new electoral reform/Parliemental system since 2051.)

=== General election debates ===
The CCU also announced that the first debate would be open to all parties with at least 1 seat in the Senate or 2.5% in 5 eligible polls. The second debate would be limited to parties with at least 10 seats in Senate or at least 7.5% in 5 eligible polls.
In case more than 10 candidates qualify for one debate, they would be separated into two nights to prevent an overran live programme. However, the CCU later deemed that the debate would be limited to 10 candidates, and in case more qualify, those with higher polling figures would take precedence over candidates qualified only on seats. However, candidates who qualify with both will take higher precedence.
The deadline to qualify for first debate was set to January 5, 2067. Eight candidates qualified, with Karla Sanchez's Green Party missing the threshold by 1 poll. Sanchez stated that the "debates excluded her to get rid of green politics," however the CCU clapped back, saying that "the requirements were set in place beforehand, and that no pollings were known then." Following the first debates in January 10, reports were made that the Reform Party would make a last-minute qualification to the second debate, following their success and praise in the debate. However, the CCU later confirmed the four qualifying candidates, with Mercado's Reform Party having been 1 poll short of making the debate. As a result, the party was projected to decrease its lead (with ~7%) over other parties in polls after the debate. Mercado called out the CCU afterwards, stating that "they have excluded parties with a real shot for CCU leadership, in fear of a change of establishment parties." The CCU reiterated their stance which was said to Green Party's Sanchez.
The CCU confirmed in March 2067 that all parties that receive 1 seat following the election would qualify for the first 2071 election debate. The CCU stated that other qualifying requirements or ways to get into the debates, as well as the number, would be revealed in a later date. It was also criticized due to the "15 seat limit" noting Union/Freedom, stating that once again "a attempt to remove and eliminate non-establishment." The CCU denied these claims, stating that "giving four debates instead of two, is a win for all parties. Nothing else." Another Blood/Justice Party, recommended 1 seat, 5 seat, 10 seat, 15 seat, noting that "it would make much more sense."

=== General election ===
A total of 10,133,832 people casted valid voted, a new record for CCU elections. The Union Party was originally projected to win 31 seats, however after a recount, the number was revised, but not. With the Freedom Party, Resilience Party, For the People Party, 3 Independents and Green Party recommending Adele Mayfield as leader of the Freedom Party as leader, she remained the leader of CCU with a lower majority of 60, compared to Union's 54.
This would mark Mayfield's last full term as Leader of CCU, as per FDPC bylaws, a leader can only hold their post for a maximum of ten calendar years. Since 2051, the CCU imposed no term limits with the new electoral system, but party committees could set their own leadership quota rules. The Freedom Party stated that it was done to "show that the Freedom Party believes in a 'fair democracy', that gives everyone a chance for freedom." The opposition Union Party did not set such laws, stating that 'it was up to [Union] voters to decide how long a leader should [lead].' The Resilience Party, which was solely led by Meryl Wilt since 2059 [as Anti-Union, allianced/coalitioned with Anti-Corruption], had voted for 10-year term limits in a majority unanimous vote. However, due to major restructuring and party renaming, her first term was only considering as begun in 2063 after the election during the party founding. As a result, the election marked Wilt's also, last full term. She stated that "it was albeit a victory for our democracy." The Reform Party set a 12-year term limit, which "could be turned into a 15-or-16-year term limit, depending on leadership review ratings, requiring at least 70% in final one of 12-years." For the People Party remained the largest after Union with no limit, however leader Chase Hirsch, promised 'to try and attempt to bring limits to the table, before the next election." The Independence Party, despite some calls for setting term limits, stated that 'the party was about the independence of the voters, leaders, riders, senators' and that as such, it was completely up to the voters to decide such. Rossiya also did not set limits. The Global Union Party, remaining leaderless, also did not have any term limits. The Green Party neither, as stated 'our fight has just begun. Such focuses could not commence, until greater expansion of the party." The rest 7 non-parliamentary-senate parties did not have any term limit rules set in place.

==== Pre-campaign season (2067–present) ====
For the first time in awhile, the Union Party contested the election simply as is, with Go Right having been merged for the first time ever. Talks about a Progressive Party as rumors in mid-2068. It was later reported that this could be a "merger coalition" of the Resilience Partyand Green Party, with potential support from Independence Party, For the People Party and Moderate Party. However, the Independence Party confirmed in November 9, 2068, that "the whole point of our party, is that we fight [the system], by allowing the Senate to continue having non-affiliated Independent politicians, so any talks of a 'merger coalition' with us, will always remain fictional, and stay like that.. The Green Party also stated that, while a Unity bid could be influential, at the moment the Green Party was intending to contest the election as an Independent party, noting that 2067 saw its best result ever, being the first time the party was elected to the Senate by its own standards, and noted that "some momentum could push us even more forward." Sanchez did say, however, that "a truly remarkable and justified Green representation in the government would be something that, if true, the party could look more into it." The Moderate Party argued that, as a centrist party, it was concerned that [Resillience] was moving 'a bit more in the left direction' than the party could manage." On the other hand, the For the People Party stated that "with the 2060 election days long gone, we do sincerely believe it is time for us as a party to move forward and attempt to participate in a Unity government, in one way or another. While we are supportive of the Freedom Party's intentions, it is obvious that any other party, will find difficult "to fit in a role" for government position." (With no party having ever gained the majority of 59 seats needed to Independently lead the government, however, every leading party adds allying recommendation parties as part of their government in less major roles, to ensure they can lead a majority in the Senate. Freedom Party came closest with 51 seats in the 2055 election as the first and only time Gabriella Gould contested the new system as Leader of the Freedom Party, temporarily for one term, some stated to 'test out the new waters and try of the new system, thanks to Koehler's success in 2051." (Gabriella Gould and Freedom Party hit seats record in 2031 during her re-election campaign, winning 74 seats with 64% of all seats. Since then, Koehler twice received a majority, once as the former being lost election, second won, with Union's Vasquez being the last party to receive a majority in her re-election campaign, with 64 seats at 55% Senate. Since then, Union Party has never participated in a Government, serving as the Opposition Leader for 6 consecutive terms, gradually in every new electoral reform election. However, the Union Party did not always place second, but sometimes third, but with the other higher-placing party(es) serving with the leading Government as a supporting voting recommending coalition Government. With the growing success of the Reform Party, some stated that a 'Union-Reform' deal, coalition or merger could "definethe course of events in the 2071 election." The Reform Party noted that "it was in its own path" and were ready for an upset.
The CCU announced on December 1, 2068, that after extensive votes, for the 2071 elections, "a parliamentary-style vote would be skipped" and the return of the old system would apply. The Global Union Party, Rossiya Party, Green Party, Blood Party, Justice Party, Moderate Party, No Allegiance Association, all codemned it, calling it "a dereform of the past, and establishmentism." The For the People Party, despite earlier remaining neutral, stated that "the move removed democracy." Others did not comment on the matter, being top parties.
Following the announcement, the Resilience Party confirmed earlier rumors of their Progressive Party, but stated that "Forward Party" was also considered, but ultimately not picked. They confirmed that the For the People Party and Green Party respectively had both already signed deals and contracts to merge for the election. This put them at 23 seats. With the Green Party added, 26 seats. The Global Union and Rossiya Party announced the unlikely coalition, with the party being known as 'Global Interests', headed by former GU officials. The party confirmed that they would remain leaderless, at "least for the time being." Global Right was floated as a potential name, but ultimately not picked, in order to 'sway enough voters not specifically indentifying as 'right'."
In March 2069, the Union Party and Reform Party signed a deal which would put the two leaders, Criston Pauley and Nikole Mercado, up against each other to vote. The winner would proceed in the unified right-wing ticket, to ensure that votes "would not be put to waste". Most analysts noted that Pauley agreed as the Union Party had a much higher standing of seats than Reform Party. Pauley did the move, some say, to ensure no votes lost, due to the growing momentum of the Reform Party, attemping to 'squash it and eliminate before it becomes a real threat.' Pauley denied any and all of these accusations, stating that 'it is important to ensure we finally defeat them [Freedom Party], and what why better than see what our voter base wants?" Pauley later confirmed that, in case of an apparent defeat, she would immediately resign as Leader of the Union Party. Mercado, unlike, stated that she 'would put on a vote between members' to see if they wanted a 'silent leader' with the party non-contesting, or to leave the party leaderless until the succeeding election. With Global Interests Party marking roughly 9% of the Senate, and 18% of right-wing seats, some stated that 'their participation in the leadership election would be much-needed to 'ensure the bag can be secured for right-wing victory.' Although some in the party were concerned about having 'zero-to-one-hundred(100)' chances of winning it, some said 'they should join, having nothing to lose.' The GIPC stated that, while it was hesitant to start any motion about such a move, it would need to be assured of 'retainining their 10 seats, and be given the power of influence.' In the end, by deadline, no deal was struck and Global Interests Party confirmed they would contest the election, whether in an attempt to win or retain as many seats as possible. As well, gaining more seats 'would be in the realm of possibility.'
Following the Union Party victory over Reform Party, by 52%, Pauley stated 'its time for the Union Party to say goodbye to Freedom's days of constant 'victory'." Mercado subsequently confirmed of a leadership election, to decide whether she should remain as 'silent leader' during non-contesting period, or step down for leaderless. Nevertheless, Reform Party voted 83% for her to remain Leader. She confirmed that she would campaign with Pauley for her to claim election victory. With the deal not on any current Parliamentary or Senate seat, the Reform Party stayed as its own in the current Senate. Had a deal been made for otherwise, the Union Party would become the biggest party in the Senate, with a 12-seat margin over Freedom. However, alas, not. Although the Union Party was expected to win,and Reform lose, the margin of victory for Union was not expected to be so low. Which was attributed to a 'reform wave'. However, alas the Reform Party movement would b e blocked until the subsequent election in 2075.
With growing calls for a Freedom-Progressive leadership election, Wilt stated that she was "100% game for such an election". Mayfield, on the other hand, stated that "while it is important that we give value to our democracy, we must not lose our identity in said so democracy, otherwise, what is a democracy?" Mayfield finally confirmed that a deal was struck.
In an upset for the Progressive Party, the Freedom Party won the joint leadership bid by 50.2%, with the Progressives losing by just 49.8%. As a result, Meryl Wilt stepped down as Leader of the Progressive Party, as well as its subsidiary child Resilience Party, leaving both leaderless until prior next election. She also confirmed her intent to seek leadership once eligible. Afterwards, she also confirmed that she would campaign on the behalf of Mayfield.

=== General election debates ===
The CCU announced in 2067 that all candidates with at least one seat in the Senate by January 1, 2070 (the campaigning commencement date[officially]) would qualify for the first debate. In 2068, the CCU confirmed alongside the EC that the vote prior to the 2067 election had been approved, which lowered the polling qualification requirement for being included in polls to 0.5%, 1% lower than the 1.5% requirement. As a result, more parties were given a chance to qualify for debates (by being included in polls). The CCU subsequently confirmed that parties that received 1% in 3 polls would also qualify. No limit was set, however the CCU confirmed that should more than 10 qualify, the debates would be split.
The CCU also announced that the second debate would be limited to parties with at least 3 seats by May 31, 2070. Alternatively, parties could qualify by receiving 2.50% in 3 polls.
A third debate was confirmed to require at least 5 seats by August 31, 2070. Alternatively, parties could make the debate by polling at 4% in 4 polls.
The fourth and final debate would require at least 15 seats by January 1, 2071. Parties could also qualify by receiving 13% in 5 different polls (as usual differentpollsters).
Some parties criticized the drastic qualification differences between the third and fourth debate, noting that "there should be a debate in between them, to allow parties to grow their [numbers]." It was also criticized due to the "15 seat limit" noting Union/Freedom, stating that once again "a attempt to remove and eliminate non-establishment." The CCU denied these claims, stating that "giving four debates instead of two, is a win for all parties. Nothing else." Another Blood/Justice Party, recommended 1 seat, 5 seat, 10 seat, 15 seat, noting that "it would make much more sense."
Following the confirmation of the return of old system, the CCU/EC announced that there would be three debates. Each debate will require 15 seats, or at least 15%; the first debate requires 3 polls, second 4, and third 5. Both defended the system, stating that 'there was not much of a point to invite lower parties, if they cannot receive at least 15%. Without polling these numbers, we do not believe it is within reason that they can win an election, and the debates, which previously allowed much lower placing parties, is not about this [anymore]. It's about who wins."
As a result, the Global Interests Party confirmed that they would host their own debate, encouraging non-Senate parties to join, with "absolutely no qualification requirements". The CCU and EC subsequently condemned this action, noting that "any party leader which appears in this or any un-official or unsanctioned event, will be banned from appearing in a sanctioned event." As the only party without a chance "to qualify" to the official debate, the Independence Party condemned it, stating that "it is toxic to go against the [authorities of CCU]. We want no part of it." The Blood Party confirmed their attendance. The Moderate Party stated that "it would in no way consider to do such a heinous action, stating that 'we must agree to ccu rules, or colapse ?" The No Allegiance Association confirmed their appearance, next. Days later, the Blackout Party stated "they would not miss their first debate." The One Matter Party stated 'count us in!" Alternatively, the Justice Party stated "this is not the way to go. As much as we want to appear in a debate, this is a direct and complete violation of CCU and EC rules. While it only applies for debate non-qualification, it's just, not right." As the last party remaining, the Communist Party stated "we do not believe in the in-invitation of parties. All participates must and can (now) receive an equal chance to debate. That is why we confirm our appearance." as a result, 7 parties and their leaders were confirmed to appear.However, it was confirmed that this was a mistake and actually 7.(actually 6). With the Moderate and Justice Party being the only two non-Senate to decline, with the Independence the only non-Debate to decline, only hosts Global Interests from Senate attending. The Freedom Party and Union Party also confirmed that they would not "attend in any means, abhoring it and condemning it." However, the Global Interests Party noted that "rules of the Debate shall mean that Party Leaders which qualify for the Sanctioned Debates, are 'banned from attending this one' unless they decline their invitation for the big one, or simply skip it and with a confirmed absence. With the Global Interests Party being leaderless, the party stated they 'would think about options such as a temporary debate leader, or have multiple party officials talk through video or voice chat/mic/webcam."
A deal was attempted to push through by Union Party nominee Criston Pauley to sway the Global Interests Party to drop out (and endorse Union/or no one). This was due to the party's increased polling numbers. However, Pauley was unable to meet the Party's demands in time, and as such, the Global Interests Party was added into the ballot in every state.
With the return of nomination system, Mayfield would be allowed to serve for two four-year terms, as she had never been "President" under this system. Under the parliamentary, she would have been replaced two years into her term, however now she would not require to. Mayfield stated that, although she could remain leader of the Freedom Party for longer, she had chosen personally not to, to respect these rules which had not precedented such electoral reform change, opting not to 'bypass pre-chosen rules by Committees and CCU/EC, etc." After further being asked, she also stated that, regardless of whether she would win the presidential election or not, that she would step down in 2073 as always planned. (With no 'leaders' of parties, this would only apply if she were President). As a result, many saw Mayfield's election as an election not only for herself, but also for running mate, Gil Brinson. However, Brinson stated it 'is not about [himself], but about the legacy and image, thereof [Mayfield] and that he was simply runningto be her Vice President, and would campaign for her, not [with] her." (But also with her, as 'for her'.) The P-VP team looked more likely following the first debate, in which she saw her polling numbers surge, following her take on Union (uncontested) nominee Criston Pauley. However, analysts suggested it 'would be a close election [where anything could happen], especially with O'Neil and [Global Interests] in the race."
The Moderate Party elected Jerlene Beckham as their Nominee, following the Incumbent's failure in leadership review. The Communist Party also elected Alva Salmon. The Blackout Party elected Darwin Ashford. At last, the One Matter Party elected Evelina Teague as their nominee, who defeated Natisha Shore and Evelina Teague by 51%, to their 35% and 14%, in the second round voting. With the new system, previous leader Jerry Lloyd returned to win the Global Interests nomination by 55%. Mayfield won mostly unopposed, winning by 70%. Pauley won with 63%. Wilt narrowly received the Progressive nomination by 53%, considering the stake of For the People and Green voters, but also Resilience who were ready for someone. (Else). However, she was defeated by Mayfield in joint leadership. Nikole Mercado won Reform primaries by 83%, but was albeit defeated by Pauley in joint primaries. (Revenge likely upon 2075). Sanchez had also won Green nomination by 77%. Hirsch won For the People nomination by 59%.

==== New polling ====
Following rumors swirling around on March 9, 2070, regarding the Independent candidate Devina O'Neil dropping out and endorsing Mayfield, or none, Oneil stated "What you've heard about and read is not true. It is simply a technique used by [Mayfield's] supporters who are trying to persuade you to pretend my existence is equivalent to - nothing. I'm here, and no, I'm not giving up. We don't need the influence of presidential parties here. It's time for some independence from that bullshit, together, we can build a strong coalition and cabinet. Eldon Ahern, the Independence Party leader for the 2063 election, had stated that he believed 'true independence means new leaders every election', which led to him stepping down for a new election.O'Neil won this 2067 election, which led the party to its best result since 2051 under Elois Dang's leadership. (sole time in new system). However, O'Neil continued her presidential aspirations, previously leadership aspirations or higher seats. O'Neil stated, "Before, we were as a party, and voted by for the independent leadership of our party. With the electoral reform now, all Independents can run without any affiliation to a party. That, in my view, and others, is a big step towards getting rid of the corruption of the system. That's why I'm running. Otherwise, I would have gave someone else a chance to lead. But luckily, that's not the case, we can finally lead seperately. The Independence Party deformed following that."

=== General election ===
This marked the highest number of Independence/Independent seats since Elois Dang's in 2051. O'Neil declared victory after the election, stating that 'independents have muuch more revelance than before, now having 10 seats. With Independents controlling 9% of Senate, they can't be ignored. Anymore." Additionally, Mayfield won 47% of seats, meaning the Freedom Party could not execute any decision such as involving Senate without the vote of other parties. With both the Union Party and Global Interests Party unlikely to vote for these, they would likely require the Independents. With 10 Independents elected, 6 are left-leaning and 4 are right-leaning. The Freedom Party would each time have to convince at least 5/6 (5 out of 6) left-leaning Independents to get their required legislation passed. This was seen as an upset, due to Freedom Party having expected to gain seats that would have went to For the People or Green which usually, would not require any Independent help. O'Neil also admit, 'We saw the numbers, we knew we wouldn't win or stand a chance. Our goal was simply to gain support from smaller states, as this was now the only way to retain Independent influence in the Senate. I do, however, expect 2075 to be a much more broad and open race.
Although some shows had shown it, Union Party's performance was seen as an upset, especially for Nominee Pauley who had been gaining momentum with the previous electoral system. Pauley conceded, stating that 'we did what we could. But going against a two-time Incumbent, together with Global Interests, stealing our votes. What did you think? It's unfortunate." Lloyd hit back, stating that 'had Pauley had enough momentum, she would had won, with or without. If she can't do such, it's clear, the writings are on the wall, they need a new nominee." Pauley hit back, stating that 'Lloyd has had enough time as leader, which accounted to nothing, with the party seeing more success without one." Mayfield thanked her voters, stating that 'she [was] honoured to be able to lead the CCU for two more years, especially with the Freedom Party gaining its highest seat count in 32 years. We will be strong together, us as a party and the CCU all and all. Thank you!"
Some stated that "democracy in CCU was dead/ded[sic]", but these sources turned out to be originated from Global Interests-pro sources. O'Neil stated that the Independents' success showed, 'democracy is far from dead, it's alive and thriving. Independents look forward for some unprecedented success in 2075." The Reform Party and its leader Nikole Mercado, also, declared victory, stating that 'it's clear the right-wing can no longer provide any success with its current establishment Union party. We must make clear. We will rise. And nothing will stop us now." On the other hand, Meryl Wilt and the Progressive Party, stated "We are happy that our defeat did not amount to nothing. But, one thing we must make clear, is that with popular Incumbent Mayfield, stepping down, our road to success may and could seem more clear. Gil Brinson, who we are currenty unclear about, will be a race not nearly as close as that of our's against incumbent Adele Mayfield. I think, if they agree, it could be something for the books for us." However, neither joint leadership agreements had been agreed to, with some stated that both 'establishment [sic]' parties would not agree, fearing 'defeat'. However, the FDPC and UPC stated that 'it is too early to talk about any leadership elections. We will look towards negotiation agreements once the time appears closer, first we shall wait for Brinson to take office."
