Results of 2015 Conshilía Daoni election |
The 2015 Urcean elections were held on Tuesday, November 3, 2015.
The Procuratorial election featured significant upheaval as the National Pact nominee, James Dynan, was elected to a second term. It was the first time the Democratic Labor Party nominee finished above third place in an election. James Cossus Reed stood for Procurator a second time, the first non-incumbent to run for two consecutive times since Stephen Herdan. As a consequence of the 2015 Urcean political realignment, the Commonwealth Union, the second largest party in Urcea, did not appear for the first time in smore than a century. The Julian Party did not nominate a candidate. Dynan's final percentage of 57.4% was largest percentage a candidate for Procurator had received since the Second Great War. He received more than 141 million more votes in the 2015 election than the 2010 election, the largest single-election improvement for a candidate for Procurator in the history of Urcea. His 28.7% margin of victory equaled the total percentage of votes for his next competitor, the only time in the history of the modern Urcean political system that a candidate for Procurator doubled the support of the next runner up.
The Conshilía Daoni election saw the National Pact win a landslide victory in the Daoni in addition to Dynan's reelection. The election saw 40% of seats (200 seats) in the Daoni change party affiliation, which set a record in Urcean history.
