The 1972 Central Shaneville Presidential election was held on the 10 November 1972 - Steve McLaren was the incumbent president and the Liberal Party were the incumbent party - The Liberals' plans of building a larger and more prosperous economy have drawn mixed reactions following his address of infrastructure issues early in his third term.
The leader of the Conservatives, John M Perkins, is the first black presidential candidate for a major political party in Central Shaneville history and he has a strong following among the black community, he has also been criticized by liberals who feel he is too socially conservative, though he has defended his position on his political views saying he is "a different kind of Conservative to get back Central Shaneville from the Liberals."
The Liberals are still predicted to win meaning Steve McLaren would be the first president to sit four terms, he is now also the longest sitting President, taking over his predecessor John Dunston's record in that regard.
The Exit polls suggested that the 1972 election would be the closest election in history with the New Democratic Party on top with the Conservatives and the incumbent Liberals tied at the time of the exit polls.
The election itself provided the first shock result since 1936 with the New Democratic Party taking advantage of the Liberal's failed promises during McLaren's third term and winning a majority making Louis "Lou" Guille the 10th President of Central Shaneville, at his inauguration speech the next day he thanked the NPD's supporters and people of Central Shaneville for putting faith in him and the party.
The Conservatives under John M Perkins came 2nd which Perkins was happy with as the Conservatives had finally beat the Liberal Party in an election for the first time since 1940.
The incumbent Liberals were 3rd and whilst it was close between them and the Conservatives for incumbent President, Steve McLaren, it was a disaster as the people had made their voices known through the elections that his handling of issues in his third term were not popular at all and so ended 32 years of Liberal Party control over Central Shaneville.
