The 1976 Central Shaneville Presidential election was held on the 12 November 1976 - Louis Guille and the New Democratic Party were the incumbent president and party respectively.
Louis Guille and the NDP's first term as President and ruling minority party of Central Shaneville is a disappointment for them, the party's support has dropped from the high of 37% in 1972 to around 30% by the 1976 election as inflation and unemployment rise this is down to Guille's handling of the economy and his decision to go back and forth on campaign promises to cut the budget but increase government spending, and abolish several smaller government agencies where he felt they weren't needed - he seeks re-election in order to "redeem himself and the party."
John M Perkins once again runs for Presidency for the Conservatives following his strong 2nd place showing in 1972 - Harry Grocer was chosen to represent the Social Credit Party once again following his strong showing in 1972 whilst the Liberals ditched Steve McLaren, in favour of a popular deputy leader and politician, Tom Johnson - The Liberals candidate Tom Johnson is from a rural electoral district called The Valley, famous for its wine, but is now a shrinking rural district, losing population and jobs to the growing suburbs which is why not many politicians from this district had ever ran for a high ranked status like President.
The exit polls suggest a Liberal minority due to the New Democratic Party's failure of a first term, which could mean that Louis Guille will not be re-elected.
The Conservative Party and John M Perkins wins a minority government instead of the Liberals making Perkins the first black president in Central Shaneville history.
This election also showed that the NDP's win in 1972 was almost fluky in a way with Louis Guille becoming the worst president in Central Shaneville history in some people's minds.
