The 2014 Seketese General Election was held on 31 March 2014 to elect members of the Commons Council, the lower house of the Hérvynsken. The President of Seketan, Fjedor Alesk formally dissolved the Commons Council on February 15 2017 at the request of Prime Minister [[Tomas Serdoa]] as the parliamentary term had expired.
The election saw Prime Minister Serdoa lose re-election to a resurgent [[Socialist Party (Seketan)|Socialists]] lead by former caucus co-chair [[Eris Kellisyen]]. Serdoa's governing [[National Conservative Party (Seketan)|National Conservatives]] lost over half their caucus as they were swept out of [[Gjenor]], [[Nelderjen]], and [[Fjeska]]. All parties except for the National Conservatives gained seats. The [[Liberal Democratic Party (Seketan)|Liberal Democrats]]  made only nominal gains, as their leader [[Angela Heiþens]] lost re-election. The [[Labour and Unionists Cooperative|Labour]] nearly doubled their caucus with with [[Lilli Maisolson]] rebranding of the party making them gains amoungst Seketan's national minorities. In Wilskland, the [[Wilsk National Party|Wilsk Nationalists]] had their best preformance, winning the most votes in the Indenepent state and more then tripling their seats. The previously minor [[Green Party (Seketan)|Greens]] also gained their first seat, with party leader [[Simon Laondo]] winning a Gjenor list seat.
==Electoral system==
Since 2004, Seketan has used a mixed voting system to elect members to the [[Commons Council]]. 193 of seats are elected from single-member districts using {{wp|First-past-the-post voting}} (district seats), and 100 seats are elected from at-large provincial constituencies using {{wp|Closed list|close}} {{wp|Party-list proportional representation}} (provincial seats). Unlike other mixed systems like in {{wp|National Assembly (South Korea)#Election|South Korea}} or {{wp|Verkhovna Rada#Elections|Ukraine}}, voters cast a single vote for their district seat, with their chosen candidates party affiliation being counted for the provincial seat. Both district and provincial seats are allocated to the provinces by population as such below.
