Tyra Howard wrote:9:32 pm - With 73.5% turnout, we are declaring that there will be a Democratic Labour minority government in the Lesser House.
In the presidential arena, we are seeing that as Edmondo Privitera is leading against National challenger Cassius Armstrong 55-45%, we are also declaring that Edmondo Privitera has secured a second term. This is the first time since 1988 that an incumbent Prime Minister and an incumbent President from the same party have been re-elected.

We have also been informed that Saint Isidore's-East has also been won by MNI candidate Brett Lawrence with 51.4% of the vote.
On the island of Imagua, the incumbent National MP, Mason Greenwood has won a second term, with 61% of the vote. Thus, in the Lesser House, we can clearly see that the DLP has twenty-five seats, and is currently leading in Newport, while the Nationals also have twenty-five seats, and are leading in zero constituencies. The MNI have sixteen seats, and is currently leading in Saint Ellen's-West, and the Greens have two seats, and are leading in zero constituencies.
Tyra Howard wrote:9:15 pm - Given the close results, we here at the ITS are forecasting a Democratic Labour minority government.
Agnes Ingram wrote:9:14 pm - The DLP have won two seats in Altaithe, with Altaithe-Northeast and Altaithe-North being held by their incumbent MPs Vinnie Lee and Luke Edison, who have won with 64% and 68% of the vote respectively, and will serve their second and third terms in the Lesser House. In Saint Ellen's-East, MNI candidate Dan Green won with 53% of the vote, while in the constituency of Morgan in Cuanstad, Ed Tagawa of the Nationals won with 64% of the vote, allowing him to enter the Lesser House for the first time. Finally, in Lundholm-South, National candidate Frank Smith won with 48% of the vote.

Outside of Cuanstad, the constituency of Saint Christopher's was won by MNI candidate Robbie Macdonald, with 61% of the vote, while on the Assimas, incumbent DLP MP Dario Foppiano won with 63% of the vote in the constituency of Cucinotta-Monastra, allowing him to serve for a second term, while incumbent DLP MP Leo Chimenti won with 58% of the vote in the constituency of Travaglini, allowing him to serve a third term.

In the constituency of Wilson, DLP candidate Laura Grant won with 52% of the vote, while on Floodplain, National MP Leonard Hopkins won with 68% of the vote, allowing him to serve for a third term in the Lesser House. Finally, at Saint Oran's, DLP MP Sam Blackwell maintained his seat with 63% of the vote, allowing him to serve for a second term in the Lesser House.
Up north, Nua Taois-North has been won by incumbent National MP Fred Dubois, with 59% of the vote, and allowing him to serve a third term in the Lower House. Nua Taois-East was won by Quinn Fox of the Nationals, allowing him to enter the Lesser House for the first time. Saint Isidore's-West was won by incumbent National MP Barney Hunt, with 58% of the vote.
Finally, DLP leader Douglas Egnell won his own seat, with 64% of the vote, allowing him to serve a fifth term in the Lesser House, and potentially allowing him to serve as Prime Minister in the event that the DLP forms government.
Thus, the Nationals have fifteen declared seats, the DLP have thirteen declared seats, and the MNI and the Greens are still at six declared seats and one, respectively. This leaves thirty-five seats remaining, and of the thirty-five remaining seats, twelve seats are being led by the DLP, eleven by the MNI, nine by the Nationals, and two by the Green Party.
Tyra Howard wrote:7:41 pm - So far, we have the following seats declared:
- Nine seats for the Democratic Labour Party

- One seat for the Green Party
This leaves fourty-six seats left to be declared, and of these:
- Seventeen seats for the DLP
- Sixteen seats for the Nationals
- Eleven seats for the MNI
- One seat for the Green Party

Rutigliano-West has been won by Ruperto Iarussi of the MNI with 55% of the vote, and in the Fabbriche constituency, Ambra Pedone of the DLP won with 54% of the vote.
Agnes Ingram wrote:7:16 pm - We are now starting to see a flurry of results coming in now.
In Ineweyu-Guardia, MNI leader Dalmazio Pasquarello has won his seat with 59% of the vote, while in the constituency of Avitabile, Soccorso Fiorilli of the MNI won with 69% of the vote. In the constituency of Porto in San Pietro, Elisabetta Cefalu of the DLP has won a fourth term with 58% of the vote, while in Piacentino-Viselli.

Tyra Howard wrote:6:59 pm - MNI candidate Andrew Farman have gained the constituency of Saint Hubert's, with 64% of the vote. The DLP are now leading or declared in twenty-seven seats, the Nationals are leading or declared in twenty-four seats, the MNI are leading or declared in seventeen seats, and the Greens are still leading in two constituencies.
Tyra Howard wrote:6:44 pm - And now, Nua Taois-Centre has been declared for the DLP, with incumbent MP, and current Indigenous Affairs Minister Helen Ilumani being re-elected with 67% of the vote for a second term. The Nationals are leading or declared in twenty-seven seats, while the DLP are now leading or declared in twenty-six seats, the MNI are leading or declared in fifteen seats, and the Greens are now still leading in two constituencies.
Ken Lagerfelt wrote:6:31 pm - And for the first time in nearly a quarter of a century, Austin Houghton has returned to the Lower House, as ITS declares Saint Fiacre's for Austin Houghton, with 58% of the vote. The DLP are now leading in twenty-seven seats, while the Nationals are leading or declared in twenty-seven seats, the MNI are leading or declared in sixteen seats, and the Greens are now back up to two constituencies.
Tyra Howard wrote:6:22 pm - And the first constituency to be declared by the ITS is Saint-André, with incumbent MP Lucian Genet securing a third term with 73% of the vote. Elsewhere, the Nationals are leading or declared in twenty-seven constituencies, the DLP is now leading in twenty-five constituencies, the MNI are leading in seventeen constituencies, and the Greens are now only leading in one seat, albeit by a comfortable margin.
Tyra Howard wrote:6:00 pm - And with the polls closed, we are now reporting the first results. All of these results so far are early votes. So far, the Nationals are leading in twenty-eight constituencies, the DLP is leading in twenty constituencies, the MNI are leading in twenty constituencies, and the Greens in two constituencies.
Tyra Howard wrote:5:55 pm - Welcome back. I am Tyra Howard, and I am joined here by Lord Mayor Ken Lagerfelt of Cuanstad, and former Prime Minister Agnes Ingram. We are covering the 2020 election results, as they come in when the polls close in about five minutes.
Tyra Howard wrote:5:49 pm - And now, with only ten minutes to go, we urge all voters who have not voted to leave now and go vote. If you are still in line when the polls close, you have the right to stay in line, and you will be allowed to vote. We will be back after the break.
Tyra Howard wrote:5:45 pm - Thank you, Mrs. Ingram. As we reach fifteen minutes before the polls close, we are going to reveal the 3D map that we will be using throughout the night's coverage to show which constituencies have parties leading and which ones don't. We have a 3D chart of the Lesser House, so we may track in real time how many seats have been declared for which party. And throughout the night, we will be interviewing party leaders, as well as the Lord Mayor of Cuanstad, Ken Lagerfelt, and former Prime Minister Agnes Ingram.
Agnes Ingram wrote:5:40 pm - I agree with you. In my time as Prime Minister, my colleagues from Cuanstad were much more liberal than my colleague from Saint Fiacre's, or my colleagues from the rural constituencies of Saint Isidore's. I do not see the attitudes of the MNI ever gaining much ground in Cuanstad, or even in Nua Taois. I can see San Pietro, given that this area has, in recent years, been seeing the rise of far-right extremism, but in general, I do feel the MNI will be confined to the countryside, and maybe San Pietro.
Tyra Howard wrote:5:37 pm - Definitely. I do not know anyone who knows anyone who will be voting for the MNI here, and I reckon most in Cuanstad are not going to vote for the MNI, especially given their somewhat... controversial platform, shall we say?
Agnes Ingram wrote:5:35 pm - We are a country of regions: that alone means that we cannot always guarantee that people will vote the same way. In the countryside, the Nationals and the DLP have been far more conservative than in the towns, and given that, the MNI certainly will make inroads into the countryside. But given the more liberal nature of towns, the more liberal nature of the Assimas, I simply do not see the MNI gaining more than a single seat in Town, so to speak.
Tyra Howard wrote:5:33 pm - Welcome back. I am Tyra Howard, and I am joined here by Lord Mayor Ken Lagerfelt of Cuanstad, and former Prime Minister Agnes Ingram. We are covering the 2020 election results, as they come in when the polls close in about twenty-six minutes.
Mrs. Ingram, to continue where we left off with the discussions, do you think there are any confounding factors which can affect the election results?
Tyra Howard wrote:5:29 pm - Certainly. And now with thirty minutes to go, may I remind our viewers that if you have not voted, do so now. If you're in line when the polls close, stay in line, and they will let you vote. We'll be back after the break.
Agnes Ingram wrote:5:27 pm - Given the recent crises faced, I feel that the MNI even becoming the kingmakers can jeopardise the continued existence of the AFDC. We've seen how the AFDC failed to act to stem this little crisis over Belmonte establishing deeper ties with the Maracan regime, and how it has caused unease and discontent among outside investors. The MNI even becoming the kingmakers would definitely undermine the very foundations of the AFDC, and cause it to be seen as a failed experiment. All this because the AFDC acted too little, and too late, and because the MNI was able to exploit people's fears of the AFDC.
Tyra Howard wrote:5:25 pm - Certainly, ma'am. This election campaign has been quite fascinating, particularly for the two major parties who are seeing the MNI take their support, and to a lesser degree, the Greens taking their support away from the DLP. How will this election affect the AFDC?
Agnes Ingram wrote:5:23 pm - I do not really know if the Nationals will be taking power tonight. While we are undeniably close with the governing Democratic Labour Party in terms of polling numbers, I am unsure if we'll have the seat distribution, given that the MNI has been appealing to the right-wing, especially out in the countryside. But I do feel it will result in a minority government, regardless of what happens.
Tyra Howard wrote:5:21 pm - Thank you for your observations, Mr. Lagerfelt. Besides Mr. Lagerfelt, we are also joined by the former Prime Minister, Agnes Ingram. Good evening, ma'am, do you think this election will help the Nationals take power?
Ken Lagerfelt wrote:5:18 pm - I do doubt that this would actually be the case: while they do include many of the same people, and they do appeal to similar demographics, the MNI has learnt from the NRP's time in power, and has taken cues from their Tribune counterparts across the Vehemens. If they play their cards right, I bet that they're going to become the kingmakers tonight. It won't matter if the DLP or Nationals win, if the MNI does not give their blessings, that minority government will fall.
Tyra Howard wrote:5:17 pm - It would be hard for Pasquarello not to gain at least a dozen seats, that is for sure. And given that Houghton is running for the MNI, I imagine it will probably seek to ensure that rural arch-conservatives will have a voice, and give a sense of continuity between the NRP and the MNI.
Ken Lagerfelt wrote:5:13 pm - Of course. I think that unlike in 1992, the Movement for a New Imagua has strong support outside of the Imaguan countryside, especially in the Assimas. And given how both major parties have not been paying attention to "their" interests, particularly on the Assimas, we're going to see constituencies who have voted DLP for decades, who have been safe seats since 1948, all flip for the first time in history. And I reckon that'll be quite a thing to watch, especially given that the MNI probably has even less resources than the National Reform did when they made their big surge to power in 1992. It is like if Austin Houghton somehow led his party from having zero seats at all to twenty-one. But in reality, he won one seat in '88, built up his momentum while he was in the house, and then gained 21. Pasquarello, I imagine he'll go from zero to at least twenty.
Tyra Howard wrote:5:11 pm - I agree: given this, I feel we may have a bit of a repeat of 1992, with the two dominant parties being thrashed by an upstart third party: just like how the National Reform Party thrashed the Conservatives and the DLP, I imagine the MNI will be thrashing the DLP and the Nationals: not enough for them to take power outright, but certainly enough to make them the kingmakers. Is that so?
Ken Lagerfelt wrote:5:09 pm - Call me Mr. Lagerfelt. I honestly don't know: the polls have been saying that it is going to be a close race between Douglas Egnell of the DLP, and Giocondo Stasio of the Nationals, but with the rise of the Movement for a New Imagua under Mr. Pasquarello's leadership, I feel that this would be a confounding factor which would affect the formation of a government. And the Greens may gain a few more seats here in Cuanstad's constituencies, which certainly would be interesting.
Tyra Howard wrote:5:09 pm - Certainly, Your Worship. Do you have any idea who will win tonight on the national level?
Ken Lagerfelt wrote:5:08 pm - I am feeling incredibly confident that the elections are going to go well. I've seen people queue up at polling stations across the city, and after campaigning for re-election for my position, all I hope is that everything will go well.
Tyra Howard wrote:5:07 pm - Joining us in the studio tonight is the Lord Mayor of Cuanstad, Ken Lagerfelt, Ken, how are you feeling right now?
Tyra Howard wrote:5:00 pm - Good evening, welcome to ITS' live coverage of the 2020 general elections. I am Tyra Howard, and we are now presenting tonight's election coverage for the 2020 Imaguan general election.
The last opinion polls yesterday shown the DLP leading at 30%, the Nationals at 29%, the MNI at 28%, and the Greens at 10%, which shows that this can be a close race. We have an hour to go until polls close, so if you haven't voted, do so now! If you're in line when the polls close, stay in line.
