19 October 4472



Prawanwit Phrompan thanks his supporters for the Chief Ministry

UDON NAKHON, Hanzen: Yesterday saw the citizens of the Kingdom of Hanzen vote for the first time since the country's reunification, an event that brought about a huge voter turnout for the nation with over 75% of the electorate turning up at the polls.

This election seems to have set the tone for the nation's political future, with two main parties seeming to come out on top: the Royal Peoples Party and the Elephant Workers' Party which both gained over 100 seats (154 and 103, respectively). Rounding out the 356 seat parliament are the Daenist League with 65 seats, the National Unity Alliance with 21, and the Orchid Society with 13.

As expected, the Royal Peoples Party's Prawanwit Phrompan, who rose to prominence through his role in the reunification council, will election cycle as Chief Minister of Hanzen through a coalition with the ideologically aligned Daenist League.
