First Election

Since the creation of Smlosa (September 20th 2023) 1 election was held. The monarchy then instated a council that functioned similarly to a parliament and proceeded to call closely monitored elections. Each party was required to pledge loyalty to the crown and have "Royal" in their official titles.

Media

There was no media on this election, as the monarchy suggested it would cause public uproar. As a result information on this election is very sparse.

Candidates

Only two parties registered under the very strict regulations set out by the government. The Smlosa Republican Party ran on a platform of a republican reform, as well as more power to the government. While the Smlosa Peoples Party called for Peoples reform aswell as protection of human rights.

Luis Treece

Luis Treece was the head monarch of Smlosa and out of fear for a loss in power due to democracy, decided to run as his own candidate. Luis Treece was a left wing authoritarian and at the time supported monarchy as a means to remain in power.

Zachary Acosta

Zachary Acosta is the best friend of Luis Treece and was hand-picked by the monarch to run against him. The monarch gave Knight the platform of democratic reform to oppose Luis's authoritarian rhetoric.

Controversy

As the first election to the country of Smlosa took place, it became public knowledge that it was a simulation of an election and not a fair election itself. Only Luis's family members and close allies were able to vote, furthermore Luis created his own opposition to loose to proove his popularity. This Election was the first of many in Smlosian History to not be rigged by the government and leadership.
