Randworth -
Reform-Labor’s Katt Wells secures her re-election, winning the elections for a second time and secures a second term for herself as prime-minister and an unprecedented third term for her party. The more left-leaning government of the social democrat and Labor caucus leader and leader of the Coalition has managed to increase her majority by 6 seats, bringing her up to 182 seats in total. A comfortable majority to lead.
 
It’s clear that the Reform-Labor Coalition is celebrating to night. The hard-fought campaign on social security, increasing funding for sports, inclusion and healthcare as well as keeping the fight up for workers rights has resonated with the voters. Within the party however they weren’t too sure about it at first. The Reform caucus, a traditionally more centre-left social liberal faction has had stiff competition from the more centre-right liberals from Forward Mordusia, who accuse the National Party of being out of touch and Reform-Labor with spend thrift and losing the economy out of sight. Though more Labor MP’s were elected and Reform lost only two seats, their fears of a strong liberal opponent were correct. Forward Mordusia, capitalising on the chaos within the National Party have gained a shocking 22 seats, becoming the major winner of the night in terms of seat gain, increasing their total amount of seats to 26.
 
Lastly there is National, the main conservative big-tent centre-right party, their leader Tony Albanense was just not the appealing enough. He flopped according to the voters in the first two debates, only managing to come of as ‘okay’ or average in the third debate. Many have attributed the loss however more to his weak leadership. It is wildly known that the more liberal-conservative and the national-conservative groups are at odds with each other and can’t agree on certain policy choices. Albanese is more known as a centrist moderate National and tries to keep both camps together. It is unknown if he will stay on as leader.

Prime-Minister Wells has announced a minor reshuffle in the cabinet and will visit the Governor-General's palace in Rechtenburg tomorrow afternoon to discuss her new government.
