Following the announcement that beloved President John Mellor would not be seeking re-election this fall, politicians around the country have begun vying for the support of their parties to run for President.


Social Progressive
Ideology: Left to center-left
Governmental Priorities: Education, social equality, and the environment

The Social Progressives have an unfamiliar task this election season: after almost twenty years in power, they will now have to determine who they will be their candidate for President during the upcoming election.

While several of the other political parties could be described as "one issue" parties, the Social Progressives promote a comprehensive platform consisting of

Green Party
Ideology: Far-left
Governmental Priorities: The environment


The Eternal Peace Party
Ideology: Far-left to left
Government Priorities: The overall ban of guns throughout the country, a reduction of uniformed police and an increase of neighborhood watch-type groups, and a renewed commitment to oppose militarism in all aspects of life.

The Killadonian Defense Party
Ideology: Far-right to right
Government Priorities: Funding of a standing military, the introduction of a compulsory conscription program, privatization of the economy, and reduced spending for the environment and social welfare

Edit: This is simply an outline for now; I'll add more later.
