The 1988 Central Shaneville Presidential election was held on the 11 November 1988. Tom Johnson and the Liberal Party was the incumbent president and party respectively.
Johnson's second term was marked by many scandals, the most prominent is the "Sibyl Vane affair", Vane was a well known author and close friend of Johnson's, she was appointed the Governor of the Bank of Central Shaneville by Johnson in 1985, but she is caught having an affair with Tom Johnson and is later revealed to have been sleeping with her as well - In January 1986, Parliament calls for a vote of no-confidence against President Johnson, on the day of the vote, the House of Representatives is sitting on a motion to adjourn, which was brought forward by the Speaker of the House, Bruce Fitch.
The vote is carried out and Johnson is the only one who votes against the adjournment, many believe he will resign however his position was becoming increasingly difficult and resigns ahead of the 1988 election after Parliament kept him in charge yet they stripped him of all presidential power between 1986 and 1988, making him the first president to be impeached in Central Shaneville history.
Replacing the scandalous President Tom Johnson, the Liberal Party's 1988 candidate is a young politician called Michael Duffy, he is seen as a breath of fresh air by many, whilst others see him as a carpetbagger in true Liberal fashion.
This election also saw the first "Communist" candidate with Lydie Poulson running for President however the rest of the communist world outside of Central Shaneville during the time called Poulson "a fake communist" whilst the Social Credit Party never brought this up hoping it wouldn't affect their results knowing all this drama could effect their results in the election.
A new regulation in Parliament abolishes of "Leader seats" to make voting more open and less biased in the districts where the party leaders are from.
After the election was called, the Liberals and Michael Duffy win a majority meaning that the people of Central Shaneville clearly wanted to give Duffy a chance to redeem the Liberal Party after the scandals of the second term of Tom Johnson.
