In 1944 it was decided that the upcoming election would be the last general election contested by the National Unity Government, with the 1950 Malgravean General Election scheduled as the first truly competitive election since the Great Exodus.
Like with the 1940 Malgravean General Election some Malgraveans protested the existence of the National Unity Government by refusing to vote, however, their protest was a minority view and turnout remained high.
Election Issues
In 1945 a large number of Malgraveans still resided within collective housing arrangements, so a major concern for this election was the construction of quick-build apartment complexes, although, a secondary concern of this was ensuring that all communities remained unified and retained access to amenities within an acceptable walking distance, a style which has become known as ancestral city planning.
Malgraveans also remained concerned about the ongoing civil war. At this point in the conflict major fighting between the central government and the separatist republics were limited, however, the majority of Malgraveans feared that the newly formed Territorial Defence Force would not be up to the task.
Campaigns
National Unity Government
The National Unity Government outlined the next stage of the three-year plan which included a target for the construction of new housing units, and requirements for all such units to be built around appropriate infrastructure. A lot of focus was put around ensuring that communities were connected either through walking or various forms of public transport, as personal automobiles were rare due to resource shortages this was a popular message with voters and helped reduce those calling for a general boycott of the election.
The National Unity Government also produced propaganda underscoring the relative strength of the Territorial Defence Force, and the vital support that they had received from the Malgravean people. It was argued that the intense social solidarity of the people would ensure victory against the terror of the separatist republics, especially, the National Workers' Republic who were rumoured to have abandoned the Ancestors.
