The 2018 Vionna-Frankenlischian General Election was held on the 22nd of July 2018 to elect 825 members to the House of Commons. It was a routine election under the Fixed Elections Act of 1901 and elected representatives from 11 established parties along with 20 independant candidates. Concurrently, an election was held to the Wolfswood Imperial Reichsrat.
Overview
The risk of a hung parliament was once again avoided by a coalition between the Imperial and Conservative parties to allow for a majority government. The Conservatives winning the election overall with a minority hold.
Dochlov Zimmermann retained office for a second term, supported by Arthur Astron who remained leader of the Imperial Party. Both the Imperials and the Conservatives lost a number of seats during the election but not enough to lose their joint majority.
The Labour Party under the leadership of Thomas Howe made great bounds into former Imperial and Conservative holdings and took three seats away from the far-right National Front. The aggressive leadership of Howe combined with a reactive and competent campaigning team showed a great deal of success as they claimed an additional 32 seats throughout the election.
Smaller parties such as the far-right Frankenlisch First, Vionnan National Party and the National Front managed to hold their place in Vionna-Frankenlischian politics, retaining a combined 24 seats. The Worker's Socialist Party lost their largest base of support in Ravenstern to the Labour Party, leaving them with 7 seats, the loss was remarkable with the party ceeding over a million votes in the Brumley area and retaining their other seats only marginally. Likewise, the centre-right leaning Federal Party retained all 8 of their seats from the last election and their support continued to rise of the colonies.
The Colonial Union Party saw its greatest tragedy since its founding in 1961, the Party's leader Sir George Campdon was killed in action in a skirmish against tribesmen outside the village of St Clarksons on the island of Statsi. During the election, they also lost the vital seat of St Gall to the Imperial Party.
The Libertarian-Left Green Party, a Party devoted mainly to environmental protection, gained two seats which brought them to a total of 3. The result made this the best election in the young Party's two-decade history.
20 Seats were taken by independent candidates, mostly in smaller constituencies. Their political and economic positions are all radically different.
The Democratic Liberal Party saw its best result in thirty years, claiming 44 seats and continuing under the bold leadership of Roger de'Mowbare. The result made them the fourth biggest party in Vionna-Frankenlischian politics.
