The July 2018 General Election is to be held from 15 June 2018/XXXIX to 1 July 2018/XXXIX and will elect members to the 52nd Cosa and fill six Senate seats for Benito, Cézembre, Fiovă, Maricopa, Maritiimi-Maxhestic and Vuode.
Elections to the provincial assemblies of Atatürk, Benito, Cézembre and Florencia will also be conducted. No referenda to ratify amendments to the Organic Law will be conducted. The election will be the first to be administered by the newly appointed Secretary of State Glüc da Dhi.
Registered parties
Four national political parties are registered for the election:
| Party | Beliefs | |
|---|---|---|
| Free Democrats of Talossa | Progressivism, liberalism, republicanism | |
| Moderate Radical Party of Talossa (MRPT) | Centrism, constitutional monarchy, liberalism | |
| RUMP | Monarchism, conservativism, derivativism | |
| Make Talossa Great Again (MTGA) | Populism, republicanism | |
In respect to the previous elections, The Republican Party (REP) has been rebranded into the Make Talossa Great Again (MTGA) party, with no mentions of republicanism in the party's 50 words statement. The HAT, a mostly apolitical party who contested the elections to the 51st Cosa but subsequently faded out during the term by losing its only MC, has not registered again. This means that, like in the 50th Cosa elections, only four parties will appear on the ballot; if no write-in parties will be returned, this will mark a more-than-six-years low in the number of parties represented in the Cosa.
The Moderate Radicals need to gain 18 seats for a majority, the Free Democrats need 53, and the RUMP need 43. No party has won an outright majority since June 2012, although the RUMP came close in the two subsequent elections.
