The citizens of Kulikovia swarmed voting stations across the nation today for national elections. All parties pushed their campaigns hard over the past few months as the election drew close. The canidates from each party engaged in heated debates on major news networks such as KNN and TWR. This was a pivitol year for the nation as it enters an economic slump and after failed military operations in TBD. Chancellor Dantes has reached his term limit and wished the canidates the best of luck in this election. The hot topics were economic reform, political reform, as well as the controversial doctrine of supporting wars of liberation. The Democratic Socialist Party, Judiciary Party, Islamic Union, and The People's Revolutionary Party all took to the campaign trail, making speeches in major cities as well as in small towns. Now, the people have taken to the polls. After the window of elections has ended, the votes were counted and recounted to make certain. The new Chancellor of The Worker's State of Kulikovia is: Gunther Rhinehart of the Judiciary Party!

He is in his mid forties, married and with three children. He started out as a steel worker in New Archangel, working his way up to plant manager. Later, he ran for Mayor of the port city and won. With several reforms put in place that put the city on track, he ran and was elected Governor-General of the Province of Petrolo. From there he remained in the lime light with a successful career which has now catapulted him to the highest seat of power in Kulikovia. He is expected to make a speech later on this evening.
