Party 	IndependentMatherson was elected to office as the official candidate of the Conservative Party in the 1994 election, but the president is legally prohibited by the Enderronian constitution from holding any party membership for the entire duration of their term. Thus, although not a member of a political party, he was nominated by the Liberal Party, the Conservative Party's successor, to be its candidate in the 2000 election. (LPE)	Social Democrats
