Nadiya

Yesterday, Nadiyans headed to the polls to elect the 10th session of Parliament and Presidium, a test for the Pavlina administration and their political leverage given the open war between them and the All-Nadiyan Communist Party but also a test of wether or not the liberal policies of the Terran Economic Forum have any popular merit at all.

Shortly after voting offices opened across Nadiya, exit ballot polls were catastrophic for Liliya with the People's Alliance for Nadiya being projected to win 56% of the popular vote but their lead quickly collapsed when polls were conducted across the country's major cities as younger brackets and more educated classes of the electorate went to their respective offices. PAN's lead shrinked from 56% to only 43% while the Matriarchal Utopianist Party climbed the polls quickly and reached the 30% bench mark and they were set to become the second biggest party behind the All-Nadiyan Communist Part and the defacto leader of the pro-TEF coalition.

At 9pm, the last voting office closed and the NCEFT quickly released their official projection which had the PAN at 43,2% with a majority in the Chamber of Justices while the MUP had their best night ever with 31,3% of the popular vote and officially becoming the second biggest confederal party in the Nadiyan General Assembly. While it is clear that there has been grievances about the policies passed by the Liliya Administration, they still managed to pull the impossible and remain in power for another 10 year.

On top of that, the 10th session of Parliament and the Presidium coincides with both the 100 anniversary of Treaty of Zarvospol and the formation of Nadiya, but also the end of the NCB's emergency control of the budget in 5743, making this session a literally El dorado for any political movement in Nadiya since any major developments and growth will be accredited to them while their opponents are seen as backwater and incompetent.
