Despite entering an unusually competitive election fought between seven parties, Catholic Political Union supporters were jubilant last night as their party surged to first place, sweeping up more seats than any other party. In his first outing as CPU leader, Tomas Neumann took the most votes in the first round of the Presidential election, although he was pipped by his Communist rival in the second round.
Now that the polls have closed, a frantic round of cross-party talks is trying to determine the shape of the next government. "The last thing Dorvik needs is a lurch back into the authoritarian past," said Neumann. "The more moderate parties have a responsibility to unite in order to keep out the Communist-People's Party bloc, which has a record of deluging our country with bad laws and bad government decisions."
