President of Central Shaneville before election

Jean Andre
Progressive-Conservative Coalition

President of Central Shaneville

William Mackenzie
Progressive

The 1928 Central Shaneville Presidential election was held on the 12 October 1928, Jean Andre of the Conservative Party was the incumbent president after overthrowing the Progressive Party as coalition leaders in the 1925 re-election, the coalition between the Progressives and the Conservatives was disbanded however due to a leadership change in the Conservative Party to a far-right wing man called Fletcher Dorner making it very unstable.

Due to bad health, former Liberal Party president Ben Murker didn't run for the first time since 1916 and was replaced with his son Bradley Murker - a strange and bias choice in the eyes of many due to the fact that the Liberals had many more ideal candidates.

William Mackenzie ran as leader of the Progressive Party again, the people of Central Shaneville were cautious approaching them due to the problems that the last proper election in 1924 had caused - with the Progressive Party aware of this they gave Mackenzie an ultimatum - "Get our minority back at least or be fired."

During the campaign, in the first debate Bradley Murker verbally attacked Fletcher Dorner on his far-right views (even calling him a flawed man) this only decreased the controversial Dorner's popularity.

After election night ended, William Mackenzie reclaimed his presidency with a dominant Progressive majority, in fact it was one of the most dominant displays in election history despite a scandal late in his campaign.

Exit Poll

The Exit Poll took place a week before the election and predicted an easy Progressive majority which was unexpected by both Conservatives and Liberals.
