The Open Up Party was formed in April 2020 to contest the June 2020 election. The party supported moving House Hold back to House Hold from Fishing Trail. Ever since early January the government of House Hold was very concerned about what would become known as Covid-19. On 10 March 2020 it was announced that as soon as schools closed all House Holdians would be evacuated to Fishing Trail. All but a few citizens were at Fishing Trail at the time of New York states highest number of recorded cases on April 4. On 30 April 2020 Prime Minister Rufus Wolf called the 2020 election for 20 June 2020. (Democracy Day) The SFF nominated 19 candidates to contest this election (a record for new a new party). Polls showed the SFF was at a record 11% in early June. As election day neared many pundits said they would play a big part in the outcome of the election. As the first results came in on election night it looked like the SFF was on track for 1 or 2 seats in the 25 seat House of Representatives. After the slowest count in the history of House Hold due to the large number of mail in voting and many new HHEC staff at 6:30pm on 21 June 2020 the BNN election computer predicted that Trunko Elephant would win his seat of Play East with 62.5% of the TPP. On 27 June 2020 when the final votes came in the SFF had won 1 seat and 8.7% of the vote in the House and 9.1% in the Senate.
