With portions of the Research Colony still under occupation, and the country engaged in active military operations against the forces of the Dragon States, a few commentators working for the Royal Malgravean Times and other media outlets in the country speculated that the election date could be pushed back. In fact, it was rumoured that preperations were being drawn up to hold the election in 2030, however, these rumours were quashed when Nadzieja Brzezicki announced that the 2029 election would be going ahead as scheduled.
It was decided that proceeding with the pre-scheduled election timetable would send a strong message to the enemy, and appropriate steps were undertaken to allow internal refugees to vote in the election in accordance with their local residence, although, turnout was slightly reduced compared to the 2019 election due to the status of the occupation and the number of prisoners being held by Grogarite cultists.
After consultation with the Office for National Statistics and Analysis (ONSA), a decision was made by the National Electoral Comission and Integrity Office (NECIO) to expand the Chamber of Representatives from 2200 seats to 2500 seats to maintain the proportionality of the vote.
Election Issues
Naturally, the ongoing partial occupation of the Research Colony was a priority for many within Malgrave, especially, those who knew refugees that had been created by the outbreak of violence or those that had family members serving in the military. In addition, the current status of the military campaign against the Dragon States and efforts to assist Rohane Alista from internal unrest were high upon the agenda, the latter spurred by the number of Rohanian refugees that the country had accepted since the emergence of the golden tower threat.
The Progressive Unity Party outlined their commitment to maintaining the present support networks for Rohanian refugees that had settled within Malgrave, including the construction of new residential districts and new public service buildings to accommodate the large population. Stanisław Lem also defended measures undertaken by the Ministry of Education to integrate newly arrived refugees within the local educational system, with suitably qualified teachers being hired and used to teach newly formed classes of refugees.
Both the Malgravean Green Party and the Socialist Party supported the efforts of the Progressive Unity Party to support Rohanian refugees within Malgrave, although, they called for greater resources to be dedicated to help Rohanians become aware of local support services. Latterly, the Green Party also called for an extension of tramways into the new neighbourhoods.
The Technology Party were supportive of the actions of the Progressive Unity Party within government, although, they criticised the PUP for not putting adequate defences in place to defend critical infrastructure from attacks based on ancestral energy, and called for an academic conference to be called to establish if the wider country was prepared to face similar threats in the future.
It also called for the deployment of technological tools to assist the refugee population settle within Malgrave, with MalTec being called to develop new tools to direct refugees to new support services.
The Conservative Action Party supported the general thrust of the policies implemented by the Progressive Unity Party, however, they criticised the government for allowing newly arrived refugees to accept social solidarity funds immediately. Instead, the Conservative Action Party supported the establishment of a separate support payment which would give refugees suitable funding to live within Malgrave.
All parties broadly accepted a similar line on the response to the ongoing conflict, with the country rather unified on the importance of defending the Research Colony, crushing the Dragon States and helping the Catedonian people liberate themselves.
In the second half of the campaign, a few concerns arose about the future stability of the country. It was reasoned that the collapse of trade with Kouralia and the economic decline being experienced by Sliverdale would have a negative impact on the wider Malgravean economy, with many fearful of a repeat of the pain of the Lost Decade.
Nadzieja Brzezicki and the Progressive Unity Party sought to distinguish themselves here, as they highlighted the work that the PUP had done to increase trade with the Dornalian Republic, Breheim, the C'tan and even states wholly outside Mystria that were not impacted as strongly or at all by the emerging crisis taking place across Mystria.
It was also reasoned that the investments within Mystria would help cement the position of firms like MalMart and MalTec for generations to come, as they had been able to accelerate takeover plans and increase their market share overseas.
The Conservative Action Party moderated their economic stance compared to previous elections, as they no longer called for the wholesale privatisation of companies like MalTra and MalEn. Instead, the Conservative Action Party cited the successful partial nationalisation of MalDef as inspiration for other state-owned firms like MalMart and MalTec. It was argued by the CAP that a partial privatisation of these firms would give them additional resources and help them in their efforts to expand overseas, although, the reaction to this message was mixed as present expansion plans were viewed very positively by the population.
The Socialist Party called for present state-run companies like MalEn and AlcoMal to be transitioned to worker ownership. It was argued that this would embrace true social solidarity, and reduce an incentive for state-owned companies to expand overseas for greater profit. The Green Party also supported calls for greater worker ownership in the economy, although, they also supported plans by MalEn to construct more renewable infrastructure overseas, although, the work to construct nuclear power plants within Breheim was a controversial policy.
The Technology Party called for a wholesale modernisation of the Integrated Works Computer Network (IWCN), a computer system initially created during the civil war to coordinate the work of state-owned enterprises and better facilitate three-year planning. It had previously been updated in 2014, however, the Technology Party reasoned that recent advancements within computing, and new circumstances meant that the system required wholesale updates to remain effective.
