Presdential Era:(1995-2001)[edit | edit source]
In the 1990s, Brooke Weasley won the 1994 Election by defeating incumbent Pablo Smith' in the primary and shifting the party further to the right. Weasley who campaigns on fixing budget issues from austerity and anti-union tactics, after the strikes of 1993, many see unions are wasteful to economic development and this grows her suburban base. Against her, the Left Party keeps floundering from disorganization and a failure to appeal to well-educated voters leaves them behind, meanwhile, other parties flounder in this election Weasley gets 42.8% in the first round and 56.2% in the second defeating Leon Moore of the Left Party and Pablo Smith, running as a Independent. During her presidency, she became hated by many on the left for ending many federal programs in favor of private ones. In the aftermath of the 1996 Financial Panic, she bailed out large banks, this turned many suburban voters against her, leading to a closer 1998 Election with 30.5% and 52% respectively.
2000 Election[edit | edit source]
The 2000 Elections were the most polarizing in history. It took three rounds of voting to reach a majority, partly due to not forming electoral agreements. The Slokais Islands Board of Elections went through a nationwide recount and Sean Khan of the Green Party actually gained a few thousand votes. In fact, the commission moved the transition of power until Feb 2nd, this caused more issues as some sued the Weasley Administration for counting to carry out actions past January 3rd, 2001. In the end, the Board of Elections announced that Sean Khan had won by 17,288 votes. This sparked protests by some who said there should be a new election, the House passed a motion to do this but the Supreme Court struck this down. Sean Khan was sworn in on February 3rd, 2001, meaning that for 23 hours no one was President of Slokais Islands, technically it was Gilbert Zhou the PM, but since he never was sworn in, it was empty. It was a Friday so for most of this period no one in the government was working and bodies operated themselves. Before Sean Khan took office there was a plot by the far-right group, Brotherhood of Slokais though they failed and Sean Khan became the first Green Party and the first President not from the so-called “3 racial groups” and the first Andhran and the first who did not go to a college within the UNL system.
Second Presidential Era: (2023-)[edit | edit source]
Weasley meanwhile, disappeared from public consciousness until 2012 when she formed the Conservative Action Organization, CAO became the most giant right-wing think tank funding the campaigns of various Conservative Party candidates. In 2021, Weasley announced that she would run if there was an election. Running against another former President George Oliver she won by gaining the support of powerful Conservative Party members. In the general election, Weasley garnered much of the same support she did in the 1990s, combined with the weakness of Joseph Zhang electorally led her into the second round where key support among conservative-minded Kaijanese voters gave her a narrow victory over Joseph Chavez. So far during her time in office, Weasley has focused on increasing defense and security spending, as a left-wing government in Parilmeant has prevented her administration from passing some key campaign promises. The main accomplishment of the second Weasley administration has been the re-activation of multiple military programs and bases, and a military operation in Kaijan.
