The '''2021 Haltorian Presidential Election''' was the TBDth quintennial presidential election in Haltoria. The election consisted of 2 rounds. The first, held on TBD, saw a total of 5 major candidates recieve electoral votes. As no candidate recieved a majority of the electoral votes, a runoff election was held between the two candidates, Senator from Rondane [[William Fraiser]] and Governor of Sørheim [[TBD]].

=Electoral System=
Under Title II. Section VI. of the Haltorian Constitution, the President and Vice President are elected to a five-year term in an indirect election. Voters vote for slates of electors, who then cast their votes for the President and Vice President. Electors are distributed based on a state's delegation to the federal Parliament. As of 2021, the smallest state was Andeborg, which recieved 5 electors from their state delegation. States and territories are also allocated votes based on the [[Chamber of Representatives (Haltoria)|Chamber of Representatives]]' proportional seats distributed by the national popular vote in legislative elections, with a requirement to distribute them equally amongst the states. As there are 150 Chamber seats allocated by the national popular vote at the time of the last Apportionment Act, in practice this meant that each state recieved an additional four electors, and the territories were distributed the remaining fourteen based on population.
If no candidate recieves an absolute majority of the electoral votes in the first round, a second round is held twenty-one days later between the two candidates who recieved the most votes. According to the Constitution, the first round must be held on the second Tuesday of November in the capital, and the votes must be counted by the Vice President (actin in his role as President of the Senate) no more than forty-eight hours after the Electors have cast their votes. If a second round is necessary, it must be held exactly twenty-one days after the electoral votes have been counted. The winner of the election then takes office on the 1st of January, giving them just under a month for the President-Elect to prepare to assume office.
In both rounds, electoral votes are distributed by winner-take-all per state to the candidate who wins a plurality of the popular vote. Due to the nature of Haltorian politics, this means that a candidate could win the election outright in the first round, without winning even a majority or even a plurality of the popular vote.

Electoral System

Under Title II. Section VI. of the Haltorian Constitution, the President and Vice President are elected to a five-year term in an indirect election. Voters vote for slates of electors, who then cast their votes for the President and Vice President. Electors are distributed based on a state's delegation to the federal Parliament. As of 2021, the smallest state was Andeborg, which recieved 5 electors from their state delegation. States and territories are also allocated votes based on the Chamber of Representatives' proportional seats distributed by the national popular vote in legislative elections, with a requirement to distribute them equally amongst the states. As there are 150 Chamber seats allocated by the national popular vote at the time of the last Apportionment Act, in practice this meant that each state recieved an additional four electors, and the territories were distributed the remaining fourteen based on population.

If no candidate recieves an absolute majority of the electoral votes in the first round, a second round is held twenty-one days later between the two candidates who recieved the most votes. According to the Constitution, the first round must be held on the second Tuesday of November in the capital, and the votes must be counted by the Vice President (actin in his role as President of the Senate) no more than forty-eight hours after the Electors have cast their votes. If a second round is necessary, it must be held exactly twenty-one days after the electoral votes have been counted. The winner of the election then takes office on the 1st of January, giving them just under a month for the President-Elect to prepare to assume office.

In both rounds, electoral votes are distributed by winner-take-all per state to the candidate who wins a plurality of the popular vote. Due to the nature of Haltorian politics, this means that a candidate could win the election outright in the first round, without winning even a majority or even a plurality of the popular vote.
