75th Adorian Election

←74th - 27th of April 2022 - 76th→

## 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 utilizing popular vote.

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

On April 17th 2022, the 74th Government would officially be formed, another Based Autocrat Cabinet. This time however CSM would have had to coalition with SoL, JNChicane, King Adoria, Yannick and Slim Pickens to achieve a majority. SoL would plan on dissolving soon, and on April 19th 2022 they would.

### De-Basedification

With the 74th National Assembly opening on April 16th 2022, the SDP would make it their main goal to repeal some of the most conservative legislation to ever be passed by Adoria, which had been passed in the previous term by CSM. On April 22nd 2022, the SDP's repeals of the Child Safety Act, Religious Institutions Financial Regulations Act, and *All Life Protected ACT* would pass. These measures would legalize porn, prostitution, abortion, and undeclare lgbt content as being adult material unsuited for children, end tax cuts and government subsidies for places of worships, and allow sex reassignment to be promoted on television and in schools. These 3 laws were less than 2 weeks old.

Besides repeals, the SDP would take the opportunity to pass their *Analog to Digital Transition Act* which had been whipped into defeat by the CSM in the previous term. This law would begin a digital transition of analog transmissions in Adoria into a fully digital nation. SDP would also pass the Adorian Veteran Pensions and Assistance Act standardizing veteran pension.

### 3rd Monarchy Movement II

On April 2nd 2022, the SDP would pass their *Protection of the Republic and Reinstation of the Adorian Anti-Monarchist Act*, a repeal of the repeal of the Anti-Monarchist Act, a law passed by the 60th Assembly until its repeal by the 73rd Assembly. With this, claims of having a mandate or link to royalty and monarchy would return to being categorized as treason. Thus the briefly reignited 3rd Monarchy Movement would return to minor support and obscurity, the Law on the Status of the Descendants of the Di Fonte Dynasty, which granted reparations to the descendants of the former Di Fonte Monarchy (in lore) would remain unrepealed.

### Government Fall

The Based Autocrat Cabinet, which had narrowly secured a 2nd term in power, would prove much more inactive than Term-73. With the legislative agenda hijacked by the Opposition undermining Government policy, the CSM would however make way and draft their budget proposal for the term. As always a deficit-budget would be proposed, though it would be the 4th budget in a row to have lower % overspending than the previous budget. Made by Finance Minister JNChicane, the budget would be proposed on April 20th 2022. The budget would propose 5.115% toward defence spending, this would be only 0.5% of Adoria's gdp. As a NATO member country, some would be supportive of 20% of the budget being spent on defence, with most supporting at least 10%. A heated debate would ensue over the fate of the budget. Will voting starting, the budget would quickly begin to fail.

This would be the first time a proposed budget would fail since the 52nd Government (InsanityCo)'s first budget proposal, though the 66th Government did not propose a budget at all. This would spark Finance Minister JNChicane to resign and leave the server. He would private the budget doc before later unprivating it. As JNChicane was an Independent MNA, this would drop the Government's 43-seat majority to 42.

On April 21st 2022, Independent MNA Slim Pickens would announce he would be withdrawing his support for the Government due to being ignored by PM Based Autocrat. Less than 30 minutes later, Opposition Leader Bossman would present a VONC of the government, it would be backed by the SDP, LD, and Slim Pickens. In the meantime, CSM would be able to pass their *War on Gambling*, a law banning gambling and gambling ads in Adoria. It would pass nearly unanimously with only Von Oldrich, gamiac, and Havee voting against.

On April 22nd 2022, the VONC would pass with **56.90%** in favor. This would spark new coalition signups and cause CSM Deputy and Education Minister Sinpar to resign from the Government and party. He would defect to the LD. On this day, the King Adoria Bloc would be formed, its loyalties and policies for the time would remain enigmatic and untested. The KAB would be unorthodox as it was founded around personality rather than politics, the 2nd to ever do so (the 1st was the Bacon Party in August 2019).

On April 23rd 2022, a Bossman Cabinet composed of the SDP, LD, RL, Mikoyan, Mr. Rascal, and Havee (an MNA of the dissolved SoL) would be announced by President Reeves holding a majority of 43 seats. Later that day however, Server Owner Matthew V would announce the Bossman cabinet was invalid as Mikoyan did not list the parties of the coalition he was consenting to, thus the current Based Autocrat Cabinet would remain in power as a caretaker.

### Death of Based Autocrat

Though he would be able to remain Prime Minister, Based Autocrat would no longer be enthused to continue having to carry on through constant backstabbing and political harassment. He would describe himself as victorious having delivered some of the largest political overhauls and uncompromising partisan reform ever seen in Adorian history and that there was nothing left to do after having won.

Late on the night of April 23rd 2022, PM Based Autocrat would hold a retirement party in Libeccio at his residence.

Celebrations would be held outside in the garden when suddenly one of the guests, Tomi da Silva, would begin to see the ghost of Matthew V materialize before him. In a state of haze, Tomi would work his way into inside the residence all the way onto the balcony. Here dozens of guests would stand bewildered as Tomi began to scream into the night sky. With the ghost of Matthew V leering over him, Tomi would confess his crimes in agony: *"I killed all of those rats... Cookie, Bert I, Meow Zedong, you, Benway, I tried to kill Arjona and Theodore, I killed them all for Adoria! All I did was because of my love for Adoria!"* Matthew V would reply: *"Your reign of blood ends tonight."*

The host and guest of honour, PM Based Autocrat would be in the house would unaware of the events outside and saw Tomi sitting in the living room and asked if everything was fine. Tomi would quickly prepare tea, supposedly to calm himself down, and offered a cup to Based. By now many rumours had circulated of Tomi's suspicious interactions with politicians, especially how HJ James Greene had temporarily fallen into a vegetative state after drinking a cup of tea offered by Tomi. Based would accept the offer, but without Tomi noticing he would switch the cups. As the two began to drink their tea, Tomi would begin to laugh manically.

**Tomi:** You naive fool! Fool! I put poison in your tea! They all think they are about to destroy me, but this will be a grand setback for them. Their beloved Prime Minister is dead. And while they cry for you, I will finish what I began. You will die just like all of them-

***Tomi suddenly felt a pain in his chest***

**Tomi:** What... what is happening!?

**Based Autocrat:** Tomi. I switched cups. I can't believe you tried to kill me. But now, it seems you will die from your own poison.

**Tomi:** My head... you bastard! I don't deserve to die! I don't deserve to die!

**Based Autocrat:** You deserve to suffer for everything you did, for every life you destroyed, for every soul that suffered from your poison. But there is no other way than use your own methods against you. The country is being saved from a great pest. No prison and no sanatorium will ever stop you. Only death can detain your rotten soul

**Tomi:** I... I... I... Don't repent-

***But Tomi wouldn't finish that sentence. He fell on the floor and died.***
***Based looked at Tomi's corpse and Tomi's cup of tea. It was still about half full.***
**Based Autocrat:** I did Adoria justice. I got rid of a pest...

***Based picked up the cup and stared into its endless tranquility***
***He drank the remaining tea***
**Based Autocrat:** Forgive me, Adoria. You will understand.

***He collapsed onto the floor***
***Their corpses were soon found by Bot and Mikoyan, both who were invited to the party.***
**Mikoyan:** PUTA MERDA

Based Autocrat's body would be cremated with his ashes scattered at the highest peak of the Cannapole mountains, following an autopsy and investigation. He would leave behind a dogmatic legacy of an accomplished statesman of which Christians, conservatives, and homophobes could all aspire to be.

### Shennogo Shenanigans

On April 17th 2022, DPM Shennogo would be muted for 7 days for repeated offences of using #party-announcements to criticize the Staff and AES team. On April 24th 2022, he would be unmuted and to his surprise he had been Prime Minister for 12 hours. In the meantime, the KAB would begin to pass non-controversial legislation totaling 6 laws establishing their public image as an active party that was here to stay. Sinpar, who had left CSM and joined LD would propose his *Stand Your Ground Act*, a bill that would nullify federal conscription and decentralize conscription to the States, legalizing provincial conscription for each State's National Guard. The next day, on April 25th 2022, voting would officially end with the bill tied **22-22**. Vice President Montiel would tie break **against** the bill dissenting it as unneeded and taking a centralist stance. The LD would expel Sinpar who would then join KAB.

On April 27th 2022, PM Shennogo's cabinet shuffle would be implemented transferring all Ministerial positions except Defence to Bjorn, making him a 9-time Minister simultaneously. He would also issue a statement requiring all Cabinet members to make announcements in both English and Dutch. Thought the statement was not an EO many would take the remainder of the term to abide in solidarity with the Dutch community of Adoria.

### The Sixth Republic II

On April 23rd 2022, Lavandi Governor Niederman would resign making Lt. Gov. Bot.org the new governor. Though a longtime member of the SDP, Bot.org would uncharacteristically be supportive of Lavandi independence. The Lavanda Islands would soon see a return of Lavandi Nationalism with a majority of the State polled in favor of an independence referendum in the near future. In equal measure, an end of the Federation would begin to grow in popularity with the SDP quickly portraying themselves in support of a 6th Republic. The zeitgeist of the 61st, 62nd, 63rd, 64th election cycles had returned.

A referendum on a 6th Republic had first been conceived by President Daniel and Chief Justice Gvizdod to coincide with the 64th election, but would be scratched due to not specifying the length of a legislative term. Instead of re-proposing the Daniel-Gvizdod proposal, NA Speaker Meow Zedong would draft his own Zedong proposal. President Reeves would issue an EO calling for a referendum on Zedong's proposal coinciding with the 75th election. History would soon repeat itself with Reeves rescinding the EO. This time however it would be by the author's choice as many would oppose reforming the States into Administrative Districts whose Governors would be appointed by the NA instead of elected by each State. This removal of local democracy would cause President Reeves and NA Speaker Zedong to stand down.

## Results

The election would start on April 27th 2022 concurrent with the 32nd Presidential Election, both would end the next day. After 27 hours results would be announced on April 30th 2022. Besides the 61st Adorian Election, this would be the only general election to have only 4 parties running. Turnout would be **18.02%**. This would mark the 3rd Majority ever achieved in Adoria and the 1st Leftist Majority.

## Government Formation

With the SDP achieving a majority it would be no question who would form government. On May 1st 2022, President Reeves would announce the 75th Government, formed under PM Bossman.
