The DPP has wrapped up its leadership elections, and an old face has come back to the party, ready to lead. Jaanus Jogi, the former Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Dolgava, was elected leader with a triumphant 77% of the vote from the party. In his first speech back as leader of the party he said that "politics in Aikums is broken, and I am here to fix it!"

He immediately went on the attack, attacking the current Prime Minister and the Conservatitve Government for corruption and for the numerous scandals and praised the Ministry of Justice for taking action on what he called "monumental corruption of the highest order". He said that he will be meeting with the Leader of the Opposition to possibly get a Vote of No Confidence in the current Government, and try to bring it to the voters. In current polls, the DSP are in the lead, with the DPP rising significantly, to be tied for second with the conservatives. If they can get an election, it would crash the Conservative majority.

Jaanus Jogi is a safe pick for the party, and someone who is growing in popularity once again. Dolgavans are getting very anxious with scandals, and many people disgusted by the current Government. Jaanus Jogi is currently trailing the Leader of the Opposition Bonaventūra Krauze in popularity across the country, but he is ahead of the Justice Minister Krista Vītoliņa who is the most popular Conservative politician for having the guts and morals to take on her own Prime Minister for corruption. Jogi if he can keep up the attacks, will probably rise in popularity.

For the DPP, having a popular leader again will certainly help it gain back support nationally. For the Conservatives a strong DPP, could be disastrous for its own party and its government which is currently in crisis. The DPP has the position of putting a dagger into the heart of the Conservatives, will Jogi take advantage of this?
