Dolgava has elected the Dolgavas Sociāldemokrātiskā Partija (DSP) to a massive majority. The election which was forecasted to be a Red Wave, was more than most imagined. For the Conservatives, it was a bitter night, with their party in shambles, and their former Prime Minister, now facing jail time.

For the DSP, it was a magical night, at their watchparty in Aikums, the crowd started out excited, and soon excitement turned into a massive party. They not only took the country by storm but they elected Irēna Niedra as the Mayor of Aikums, and they swept local elections across the country. In the Reiksaima, it was a disasterous night for the Conservatives, but comeback night for both the DSP and the DPP. the results and seat count are as follows

 
DPP: 24.90% - 47 seats
DKP:  12.02% - 23 seats
DSP: 63.06% - 119 seats
Others/Independents: 0.1% - 0 seats

When the DSP majority was announced, the current Leader of the Opposition, but soon to be Prime Minister Bonaventūra Krauze walked on the stage in front of her supporters and declared that a "new age for Dolgava" had begun. She wore her now trademark red outfit and was clearly overjoyed by the result. The DSP and Krauze have campaigned on increasing government transparency, ditching most of their "soft Socialism" platform, to focus on bringing about transparent and normal governance back to Dolgava. She has been praised now as the savior of the Dolgavan left, and the person who brought about a majority government for the Social Democrats, who have not held governance in nearly a century.

She was supremely confident in her ability and she has been very clear about her plans. She has stated that a DSP government will "work for Dolgavans, not for their own shady companies". She has been clear that the Prime Minister position as it stands has too much power, and her plan includes creating a second chamber of the legislature, as well as limiting the power of the Prime Minister, to stop what happened with the former Prime Minister, from happening again.

The DSP will have a massive majority government and Krauze has promised to bring change to Dolgava. For Dolgava it will be a new Government, with new ideas and a new vision for the country.
