General election candidates approved

His Imperial Majesty the Emperor has approved three applicant Representatives to stand in next month’s general election.

The approved Candidates are Lord John Gordon, Lord Andrew Musgrave, and Lady Addison O’Halloran.

Lord John Gordon, Viscount of Thetford, previously served as Prime Minister from June 2020 to September 2021, restoring order to government and overseeing cultural and demographic growth for the nation after the May 2020 political crisis. If elected, he will be the first individual to have served two non-consecutive terms as Prime Minister.

Lord Andrew Musgrave, Baron of Corinium Terentium, has served as Home Secretary since August 2022 and is the Empire’s longest serving Governor. He was elected last year as Representative for non-residential subjects living in the British Isles.

Lady Addison O’Halloran, Baroness of Blue Ridge, has served as Under-Secretary for the Environment since September 2021. She contested the previous general election earlier that month, gaining just under a quarter of the votes.

This year’s election takes place on February 12th, in four weeks.

The election will coincide with a referendum on constitutional amendments, the details of which are expected to be announced in a matter of days.
