2010 Parliamentary Elections

In March 2010 it was announced by incumbent Prime Minister Oliver Burke who had one an election three years prior that he was resigning and would not be seeking re-election as he announced the 2010 election which would take place on May the 22nd. As the nation went into the election a feeling of disenfranchisement, lack of political choice and confusion swept the nations. The two prior parties who had dominated politics, the national party and the social party had both been dogged in turmoil and unpopularity and were swept away by the emergence of the Conservative Party led by Sebastian Kurz and the Spring Party led by Bastian Dahl.

The Election was won by the Spring Party who won 29 seats compared to 22 Conservative and 1 Independent victory. The "Conservative Wall" on southern Island stretching from Zoutelande to the Barkes Coast was almost destroyed however a few narrow victories ensured that right wing parties held onto the wall as they had done for fifty years.

Conservatives did not win a single seat in a city and every single seat was a rural seat as commuter seats south of Aarselm continued their trend under the Social Party of flipping to the Spring Party.
