'''Tommy Aarsand''' (20 October 1904 - 24 February 1986) was an Ordennyan politician who served as Chief Minister of Nørdenavvic from 1944 to 1960, Prime Minister of Ordennya from 1962 to 1970, and Leader of the Labour Party from 1960 to 1970. A Baptist minister, he was elected to the Chamber of Deputies of Ordennya in the 1935 election, the first election held after the restoration of Ordennyan democracy, which saw a landslide for the Labour Party. He left national politics to become Leader of the Nørdenavvic Co-operative Party, and then the second Chief Minister of Nørdenavvic, unseating the Liberal Union which had governed since powers were first devolved to the region. Among other reforms, Aarsand's government implemented Ordennya's first single-payer, universal health care program, which would go on to be adopted by Ordennya nationally.

After serving as Chief Minister for 16 years, Aarsand stepped down to lead the national Labour Party, which had been out of power for 18 years. The ascension of a popular provincial Chief Minister to the Labour Party leadership breathed new life into what was seen as a tired party with no direction. Aarsand successfully led the Labour Party to government two years after becoming leader, winning the 1962 election with a substantial majority, winning re-election in 1966, before stepping down as Labour Party leader in 1970.


Aarsand's eight years as Prime Minister of Ordennya saw numerous reforms passed, including substantial reform of the Ordennyan health system which saw the various regional agencies centralised into what is now the Ordennyan National Health Service, the introduction of government-backed car insurance, the passage of a War Measures Act, and the decriminialisation of homosexuality and abortion.


 
He was awarded many honorary degrees, and a foundation was named for him and his political mentor S. J. Eriksen in 1975. In 2004, Aarsand was named "The Greatest Ordennyan" as part of an OBC television program, based on an Ordennya-wide survey.

The '''next federal election in the Federation of Ordennya''' is scheduled to take place on 23 June 2019, after President [[Michel Fallow]] called a snap election, after the Liberal Democrats left the governing coalition to vote with opposition Parties against legislation on an in/out Euclean Community referendum, with aim of gaining a parliamentary majority for the KKF/KPO coalition to pass the legislation.
 
== Electoral system ==
Ordennya uses the [[wikipedia:mixed-member proportional representation|mixed-member proportional representation]] system for the House of Commons, a system of proportional representation combined with elements of [[wikipedia:first-past-the-post|first-past-the-post]] voting. The House of Commons has 650 members, and these seats are distributed between the 12 Ordennyan states. This system has been in place since a referendum in 1999 changed the electoral system from alternative vote to mixed-member proportional, and has been used since the [[Ordennyan general election, 2000|2000 election]].
 
Each Ordennyan voter has 2 votes:  a constituency vote (first vote) and a party list vote (second vote). Based solely on the first votes, 325 members are elected in single-member constituencies by first-past-the-post voting. The second votes are used to produce a proportional number of seats for parties, based on state lists. List seats are allocated using the Sainte-Laguë method. If a party wins fewer constituency seats in a state than its second votes would entitle it to, it receives additional seats from the relevant state list. Parties can file lists in every single state under certain conditions – for example, a fixed number of supporting signatures. Parties can receive second votes only in those states in which they have filed a state list.
 
=== Voting eligibility ===
In order to vote in the federal election, one must be:
* on the electoral register;
* aged 16 or over on polling day;
* an Ordennyan or Xanartopian citizen;
* a resident at an address in the Ordennyan Federation (or an Ordennyan citizen living abroad who has been registered to vote in Ordennya in the last 15 years);
* not legally excluded from voting (for example a convicted person detained in prison or a mental hospital, or unlawfully at large if he/she would otherwise have been detained).

Tommy Aarsand (20 October 1904 - 24 February 1986) was an Ordennyan politician who served as Chief Minister of Nørdenavvic from 1944 to 1960, Prime Minister of Ordennya from 1962 to 1970, and Leader of the Labour Party from 1960 to 1970. A Baptist minister, he was elected to the Chamber of Deputies of Ordennya in the 1935 election, the first election held after the restoration of Ordennyan democracy, which saw a landslide for the Labour Party. He left national politics to become Leader of the Nørdenavvic Co-operative Party, and then the second Chief Minister of Nørdenavvic, unseating the Liberal Union which had governed since powers were first devolved to the region. Among other reforms, Aarsand's government implemented Ordennya's first single-payer, universal health care program, which would go on to be adopted by Ordennya nationally.
