In 1991, the now 29-province nation was excited to have their first official election, and six parties - plus an independent candiate - started the march for the leadership. Tragedy struck during the campaign's early days as Independent candidate Nathan Robinson crashed on a snow covered road in New Labrador, succumbing to blunt force injuries. The party chose to not replace him on the ticket, and as they had not chosen a vice-presidential candidate, did not run anyone. President Grant won a second term by a fair margin over Continental Party candidate Marcus Johnson, 16 provinces to 9.

Politics has been a big business, and mostly cleanly run. The major parties are:

  • Freedom Party
  • Green Party
  • Workers Party
  • Republican Party
  • National Party

Presidents serve for 6-year terms, with a limit of three terms before they must retire.

Number President Vice President Party Years
1 David Grant Brian Ellis Freedom 1985-2003
2 Dale Johnson Horace Callahan Freedom 2004-2009
Example Example Example 2010-2015
3/4 Gregory Hodge Gabriel Meyers Independent 2016-2021 (end of first term)


Continued Growth

The second order of business for the new nation was the first president. David Grant was unanimously chosen among the groups 5-0 in an unopposed vote. It was decided that presidental terms would run 6 years, with elections the November prior, with only the first-ever term being 7 years. In Grant's first term, that meant his first election was in 1991.

The First Election

In 1991, the now 29-province nation was excited to have their first official election, and six parties - plus an independent candidate - started the march for the leadership. Tragedy struck during the campaign's early days as Independent candidate Nathan Robinson crashed on a snow covered road in New Labrador, succumbing to blunt force injuries. The party chose to not replace him on the ticket, and as they had not chosen a vice-presidential candidate, did not run anyone. President Grant won a second term by a fair margin over Continental Party candidate Marcus Johnson, 16 provinces to 9.

1991 Candidates Party Provinces
Grant/Ellis (I) Freedom 16
Marcus Johnson/Neil Thomas Continental 9
Nathan Robinson/None* Independent 0 (see note)
Michael Davis/Stephen Smith National 2
Ryan Francis/Alfred Fox Green 1
Anthony Foster/Paul Lawson Workers 1
Kurtis Roach/Howard Rosario Republican 0
  • Robinson was killed in a car accident during campaign, before a Vice President was named. The ticket was never replaced.
  • (I) Incumbent

Grant's Second Term, and Second Election

Part of Grant's re-election platform was to get the country to at least 45 provinces. By year four, he succeeded in that.

  • 1992: 4
  • 1993: 4
  • 1994: 4
  • 1995: 4
  • 1996: 3
  • 1997: 2

The second campaign was much more feisty and tightly contested, as a Grant win would guarantee a new president the next time. Grant would eventually get his third term, though only by two provinces, 19-17 over Joe Brady of the Workers Party.
