Talk:List of parliamentary elections in Renvyle

2011 election: Progressives blamed the PLP for dragging the government to the left, thereby costing its reelection.

1995 election: SDA and Moderates thought joint election ticket with preagreed coalition platform would oust the Liberals, but during the campaign public disagreements were aired which meant there was a lack of message discipline. This boosted those who were arguing for a formal merging of the parties, who were united on most key issues. When they did merge, the Moderate leader became deputy leader of the Progressives, and went on to become PM after SDA leader's retirement.

ERA OF CONSOLIDATION FROM 1991 TO 2019

1989 election: due to bad relations with his Moderate deputy, the SDA leader and PM forms minority government with CFW, backlach ensues compared with LPP merger which leads to 1991 result. Government collapses early due to defections and SDA internal disagreements.

1985 election: FPP goes too far in government, stirs up backlash (eg. CFW has its best result).

1983 election: FPP comes ahead of Liberals this time, demands premiership and forces Liberal leader down to Deputy PM status. Partnership does not work well this way and government collapses.

Era to do with personality/partnership clashes from 1979 to 1991 --- era of instability?
