The PP's incumbent leader, Nirtyam Am'mayi, ran for re-election unopposed, with the support of all Commissioners and factions. As no other candidates ran, the race featured a record-low turnout of just 2% of eligible party members and "registered affiliates" (non-members choosing to vote only in the PP's primary). During the conference, however, many of Am'mayi's policy proposals were rejected, especially those pertaining to a proposed package of hate speech laws. A proposal to abolish polygamy, opposed by Am'mayi, was also supported by a majority of the party.

Latest revision as of 01:45, 7 May 2024

Throughout the month of April 2024, many Mel-akkan political parties are holding biannual, state-organised conferences to elect leaders and formulate policy. The first conference was held by the Progressive Party (PP) on April 21st and 22nd, followed by the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) on April 24th and 25th. A final conference will be held by the Coalition of Independents on April 27th and 28th. State-organised party conferences are only mandated for the nation's 3 largest parties in terms of Coordinating Council seats, but smaller parties also scheduled their own conferences, on the 28th of April in the case of the Originalist Progressive Party (OPP) and on the 29th of April in the case of the Workers' Revolutionary Party (WRP).
