With the Cenian Social Liberal Party poised to take over the Assembly of Sectors, its candidates are doing a lot of campaigning. The Assembly of Sectors and Assembly of Planets election is on August 3, Senators are elected on August 25, and the President and Prime Minister are elected on November 10.
The CSLP Campaign Committee is spending billions of Bewlegi in an attempt to gain a bigger majority in the Assembly of Planets. It is decrying the cutbacks on public education and trying to raise support for its new war plan and inflation initiative.
Prime Ministerial candidate Shadow B’betsy has said she would resign her Senate seat in order to devote her time to the race for Prime Minister. The CSLP nominee is Midnight B’betsy, Shadow’s daughter. The Cenian Conservative Union is capitalizing on B’betsy’s departure, running strong candidate Jay Mandamati. But Mandamati has little chance of winning in heavily liberal Katinal, so he is portraying himself as a moderate and launching ads against Shadow B’betsy.
Rookie in politics Albert Stein is running for Senator as the CCU candidate in swing sector As Lan. But the CSLP incumbent, Klejos Royfer, is appearing strong and is immensely popular, winning polls 61% to 32%.
In Marias Pass, all parties are looking to take the Marias Pass seat, after the short-lived Green Party dissolved. But this moderate sector is most likely to switch back to the Cenian Moderate Party, which held the seat a few years ago. Former Senator for Marias Pass Crystale Figg is ready to take back her seat.
The Elephant Party is rejecting calls to help Waterloo’s revolution, although the significant Holy Wolfe community is rejecting those calls in favor of the recently formed Waterloo Party. It is trying to spread its position by nasty attack ads to the conservative Holy Wolfes.
CCU Presumptive Prime Ministerial nominee Kartot Tarat is blasting his most likely foe, saying Shadow B’betsy is too sick to be Prime Minister and will not help the economy grow.
The revolution in Waterloo will be a plank in many parties platforms, with Kyn Tucin pledging to support it and Kartot Tarat declaiming against helping.
The main issue in this election is not the economy. It is relations with Therrion. The Cenian Conservative Union is going all steam ahead in favor of war, but the CSLP is favoring a more moderate stance.
