Election System Overview

Elections are a crucial part of the game's political system, determining the leadership and legislative representation of parties. Here is a breakdown of the different types of elections and the recent updates to the election system:

Presidential Elections

Elections for the national President occur each month, usually the 1st. Election day may differ from a country to another. In fact, the congress has the power to impeach the president and starts new presidential election (law proposals are explained here). Political Party Leaders can now nominate any party member to run for Presidential Elections (it's no longer restricted to the Party Leader).

Party President Elections

Party President elections are a feature that allows members to elect their Party President directly. Players must apply actively to run for the position of Party President. Elections for Party President determine who will lead the party and have the authority to make key decisions, such as setting the priority list for Congress elections. Party President elections happen on the 10th of each month (the rule may have been changed).

Congress Elections

Congress elections take place on the 25th of each month. The Party President has the authority to select a priority list of candidates who will get into Congress from their party.

  • Applying for Congress: Players need to actively apply to run for Congress. However, the priority system set by the Party President remains in place, meaning candidates will still need to be on the priority list to have a higher chance of getting elected.
  • Election Process: The Party President’s priority list determines which candidates from their party are prioritized for Congress seats based on the number of votes the party receives.

Key Points to Remember

  • Party President elections are held regularly, and any player can apply to run.
  • Active participation is required for both Party President and Congress elections.
  • The priority system managed by the Party President is still in place for Congress elections, influencing who gets elected.
  • You can decide to nominate or not a presidential candidate. It can be used to make coalition during elections.
