The 2024 Fallish prime ministerial election will be the 20th quadrennial prime ministerial election in Falland since the establishment of the federation in 1944, set to be held on 11 May 2024. Voters will elect a prime minister for a term of four years. Incumbent Prime Minister Karren Shroff, leader of the Progressive Party, is running for re-election. The People's Bloc elected Gorden Payne-Smith as nominee for the premiership in 2023.
The winner of the election is scheduled to be inaugurated on 10 June 2024. The election would also run parallel to the 2024 Fallish general election.
The main campaign issues revolved around the country's overreliance on immigration to cover for low birth rates. The rise of economic inequality ever since X is also a key point during the campaigns. In most polls, voters identified the population crisis as their prime area of concern. Campaigning was perceived to be highly divisive, with X playing a prominent role in the discourse. Media coverage during the campaign was also extensively criticised, with various outlets accused of bias and sensationalism particularly The Analyser and the Wexdon Telegraph. Candidates utilised a variety of campaign strategies, including public rallies, televised debates, and social media engagement, to reach out to people. Opinion polls conducted leading up to the election indicated a closely contested race between the incumbent, Karren Shroff, and Gorden Payne-Smith.
Background
According to the Fallish Constitution, Each electoral division of Falland elects one member to the Chamber of Deputies using the first-past-the-post voting system. This will run parallel to the 2024 Fallish general election which would occur between 5-11 May.
In order to vote in the general election, one has to be on the Electoral Register, be over the age of 18 during the polling week, resident at an address in Falland, or a Fallish citizen living abroad who has been registered to vote in Falland at any time. Individuals barred from voting include convicted people detained in prison or a mental hospital, unlawfully at large if the person would otherwise have been detained, or a person found guilty of certain corrupt or illegal practices.
Individuals must be registered to vote by midnight twelve days before the beginning of the election. Any person who has two homes could also be able to register to vote at both addresses as long as they are not in the same electoral area, but can only vote in one electoral division during the general election.
If Karren Shroff is elected, she would become the fourth Prime Minister of Falland to be elected a 2nd term.
