1924 Myeon General Election

The 1924 Myeon General Election was held on 18 Veiltide, 1924 in Myeon to elect all 235 members of the Myeonese Federal Assembly. The elections were scheduled by President Ae Il-Seong in line with constitutional provisions requiring elections to take place every three years. The elections will be organized by and monitored by the Central Elections Office of Myeon, as well as a team of international observers invited to oversee electoral results.

The general elections pits two term Prime Minister Sa Yong-Jin against opposition leader Che Song-Hee, the first female to be nominated as the head of a political party in Myeon, and the first woman to run for the role of Prime Minister. According to polling by public broadcaster MBS, most voters have identified social issues such as the rights of homosexuals to marry, stronger environmental regulations, cheaper healthcare and prescription drugs, and a low minimum wage as their top issues in the election, while foreign affairs issues such as countering aggression from Hygessivini and Novogaard, as well as increasing military funding has also been a top issue for many voters. Prime Minister Sa Yong-Jin was initially popular amongst business elites, though with the nomination of popular opposition leader Che Song-Hee, his lead over the progressives has deteriorated, with the Progressives leading the Liberals in most polling. Che has galvanized younger voters with promises of a minimum wage hike, a promise to stand up to Hygessivini and boost military spending to protect Myeon's interests in the Gennet Ocean, as well as a promise to propose stricter climate policies within her first year as Prime Minister. Sa Yong-Jin, by contrast, has pointed to his government's solid handling of the economy over his past two terms as Prime Minister, the economy's low unemployment figures, and his government's pushing for sanctions in the Asanian Co-Prosperity Organization. His Liberal Party has promised to lower taxes on the middle class, and to cut government spending by 1.3% over the next three years.

As polls closed in Myeon on election day, it became evident that the Progressives and Greens had secured a majority, with the Progressives winning every major city by 55% or more. By the middle of the evening, the Liberal Party leader and incumbent Prime Minister Sa Yong-Jin announced he would be resigning his cabinet, as the people have "clearly spoken" against his government's leadership. By around midnight, the Central Elections Office had named Che Song-Hee's Progressive Party as the winners of the election, and her left wing coalition as the largest bloc in the Federal Assembly. An hour later, Che Song-Hee and the Greens put out a joint statement saying the two had the basis of a coalition agreement complete, and would be putting forward a governing cabinet in the next fortnight.
