August 2021 Elections

The **August 2021 elections** were held on Friday, August 6, 2021.

## Presidential election

### Candidates

**Independent -** Allied Fascist Union, former Secretary of Regional Affairs and former Senator, declared his candidacy for President on August 1, four hours after candidates became able to file their candidacy.

**Democratic Socialists -** Sjkeji, former Secretary of Foreign Affairs and former Senator, declared his candidacy for President on August 3.

**Other parties -** There were no other candidates for President from any of the other seven parties in the Alliance. The incumbent, Common Union of the States V2 of the Constitutional Reformist Movement, did not run.

### Stances

**Allied Fascist Union -** Coming up with an action plan after being elected and helping the region grow as best as he could. He admitted that he didn't know much about being President, but said that he was running as a serious candidate.

**Sjkeji -** Reviving The Federal Union (an interregional organization from 2019), making committees for random things, bringing back the Alliance Council, and creating an official Vice President position. However, he said that he was only "half serious" about running.

### Endorsements

**Allied Fascist Union:**

* Common Union of the States V2, President of the Red Wolf Alliance

**Sjkeji:**

(none)

### Results

**August 2021 Presidential Election**
 Independent gain

Turnout for the election was 55.9%. 19 ballots were cast, including one which was invalidated due to no ballot confirmation.

## Senate election

### Candidates

* Asellia, current Senator, Independent
* Common Union of the States V2, current President of the Red Wolf Alliance, Constitutional Reformist
* Madison and Wisconsin, 7th President of the Red Wolf Alliance, Constitutional Reformist
* Notteterra, current Senator, Red Wolf Christian League

Aloe Republic, the 8th President of the Red Wolf Alliance, an Independent, ran but then dropped out of the race.

Incumbent Senator Cathartes Aura (Democratic Socialist) did not run. The reason that there were only three incumbents and not five (there were five seats) was because two of the five Senators, Provident Nation and South Pacific Central Powers, resigned in the month before the election.

### Results

Five seats were up for election, and there were only four candidates, meaning that an election was not needed.

In the previous Senate, the party composition was 1 Christian League, 1 Independent, and 1 Democratic Socialist, with the Democratic Socialist as the Government side and no clear opposition.

After the August 2021 election, the party composition is now 2 Constitutional Reform, 1 Christian League, and 1 Independent. One seat remains vacant.

This was the first time that the Constitutional Reform Movement gained a plurality in the Senate, and only the second time that they had two Senators (the other time was for just a few days in April 2020, due to a resignation).

* Floyssauu, incumbent World Assembly Delegate, Independent

### Results

Floyssauu was re-elected to the Delegacy without any opposition.
