By modern historians, the 1970 general election is known as the election in which nothing happened. It was a remarkable period of relative calm within Malgrave, as even the civil war entered into a period of limited violence and most things appeared to be running smoothly and no major crisis were reported.

Election Issues

A major election concern was the ongoing status of the civil war, although, the quiet nature of the fighting meant that this was not a major concern compared to previous years after the disaster of Operation Swift.

Education was also another major issue, with the safety of after school clubs near the front-line becoming a pressing issue after the Battle of Pakosc had seen students involved in active combat.


Campaigns

Conservative Campaign

The Conservative Action Party underscored the importance of maintaining a steady hand on the machinations of government, with the Progressive Unity Party portrayed as an unknown force. It proved to be a moderately successful message, and the Conservative Unity Party was able to maintain a majority of the vote.


Technology Party

The Technology Party was still suffering due to being linked with the disastrous failure of Operation Swift. Internally, the Technology Party was also struggling to find a new identity and it's messaging suffered as a result. It called for a continuation of it's longstanding policy to modernise the armed forces, and create an overseas territory dedicated to research cities.
