Valerie Yepes elected President of Gaduridos; Promises to end the Malaise by the end of the decade, start the Thousand Roses Campaign, and improve living standards.
The results of the October 5561 elections have concluded with Valerie Yepes prevailing. This was rather expected. With the PSSG retaining it's super majority, it can continue developing the nation as it would. The election of a socialist to the highest office in the land is not something new, but not something super common for Gaduridos. But this election has received notable interest for the policies Yepes has pledged.
First things first, the Malaise. It has gotten better under MCS, and the economy has improved since the last election. However, Yepes has pledged to end the Malaise before the end of the decade. She has stated that the Malaise can and will be ended by the end of the decade, and that the 60s will not be another decade of despair, but one of hope and optimism. And this ties indirectly to her initial plan, the Campaña Mil Rosas (Thousand Roses Campaign) which should not only skyrocket living standards but help the economy as well.
Yepes has called for several new rights to be given to Gaduri. The right to a living wage, the right to adequate housing, the right to medical care, the right to social security, the right to education and the right to be free from unfair economic competition. She has pledged to establish a strong welfare state, and what she calls a "social state", fight unemployment with government programs and develop a more fair Republic. Her motto, which got her nominated (that being, "From Womb to Tomb") has shown how far her welfare policies will go. From birth to death, every Gaduri will be supported. Despite being a socialist, her economic plans are rather moderate, or more in fact, cooperative. She has rejected the idea of class warfare, and focused on "class cooperation" for a better Gaduridos.
Yepes has a radical equitable vision for Gaduridos, but her first 4 years will show if the Gaduri want to keep her in office. With the Tukvalgad Pipeline close to completion (ready to be done next year), it will also be a possibility to show a new foreign policy or maintain the status quo there. However, what has been noticed is an eerie silence on the Confederation northwards, with Yepes not giving any comments. Irregardless, her plans don't stop at welfare. For improving the economy, as stated aforementioned, she has shown support for using government programs. Perhaps we may see a public works initiative on the horizon? Her goals to establish a social state have also received interest. She was elected because of it after all.
With her election, we can really start to expect more government efforts to boost the economy, raise living standards and improve the lives of all Gaduri. Whether she can live up to her ambitious agenda is yet to be seen, but it'll certainly be an interesting 4 years ahead. Whether it's for welfare, a social state, or her class collaboration rhetoric, she faces opposition from some of the PSSG, and from some aspects of society. Yet she also has support. It remains to be seen on if she will achieve her goals.
