The People's Republic Of Odima are now holding Parliamentary Elections. Three of the countries major parties are vying for control over Odima's Parliament. The following parties are seeking majority:

The Liberalist Party:
The Liberalist Party as of late have been on the receiving end of President Adama's wrath. They are pushing for drug legalization, of which parliament is looking to ban such a law. Angered by the latest tax cuts from 35% to 26%, they argue that the tax cuts are not working while Adama states that a booming economy and more people willing to go out and work are credited for the incoming cash flow. The Liberalists are also looking to put an end to the ever increasing funding and spending of the Department of Security and Defense (DSD) and also abolish the "Big Brother" system that implemented cameras in public places as well as wire taps on public phones.

The Elitist Party:
The Elitist Party is consisted of those who feel like they are above the common people. Adama has lost all patience in this party and considered possible genocide. They show disrespect towards the leadership, enough for Adama to declare this party "scums of the world". However, Adama says he's nice enough to give them a chance to remain in parliament, just this once. How? By cutting a deal. The Elitist Party are the driving force behind Odima's vote against banning slavery. However the WA is in favor of the ban, so the status of the party may be short lived in Odima, thus allowing Adama to go forward in his plans to round up anyone associated with this party and expelled from the country.

United Socialist Front:
The party founded by President Adama. They remain the heavy favorites in the elections. They recently are discussing legislation on funding it's citizens for donation of blood and organs. Although the nation is an Inoffensive Centrist Democracy, the USF party knows that the nation will always be a socialist dictatorship. The USF is also behind the acts of passing laws bringing crime down to very low numbers and are seeking a captial punishment law in the near future. They also voted to increase funding in the DSD, in hopes for military growth as the population rises.
