Three parties are slated to return after a hiatus: the [[Zefençadéirs del Päts Talossan (Ventrutx)|ZPT]], a party that was most known in its 1998-2005 iteration, but will be revived for a second time by [[Ieremiac'h Ventrutx]]; [[MTGA]], whose only member [[Mximo Carbonel]] had sat out the 53rd Cosa; and the New Peculiar Way, which held seats in 2013 but has largely been dormant since, only sporadically holding seats in [[Benito]]. One completely new party is expected to take part in the elections: the [[PNP]], led by Eðo Grischun. Grischun served as the leader of the RUMP, most recently on an interim basis, but resigned from the party in the summer.

Moderate Radicals Arise will not run again; this will likely spell the end of [[Erschéveþ da Schir]]'s stay in the Cosa, which had lasted since the 48th Cosa, the second longest tenured MC behind the RUMP's [[Eovart Xhorxh]].
The [[RUMP]] did not register for the election for the first time since 2005. The party had contested 19 elections in a row, existing for virtually the entire post-Ben era. The party had been in decline for some time, and in the waning days of the 53rd Cosa it only had two MCs and a Senator, with two leaders (Grischun and [[Alexandreu Davinescu]]) leaving politics in the span of a month during the summer. Moderate Radicals Arise will also not run again; therefore, the two longest tenured MCs ([[Eovart Xhorxh]] and [[Erschéveþ da Schir]]) will both leave the Cosa.


The Free Democrats need a swing of 12 seats to win a majority; no party has managed to do so since 2013. RUMP and AMP need to gain 53 and 61 seats respectively; no such swing has ever been achieved under [[EM200]], the biggest positive swing being the RUMP's +43 in the 36th Cosa.

[[Ieremiac'h Ventrutx]], the incumbent, was elected in a special election to complete the remainder of [[Ma la Mha]]'s term. He has yet to announce his intention to run; in his special election campaign, he was elected as a write-in candidate (no other name actually appeared on the ballot, in a first for Talossa since Reunision). Ventrutx is also running with his own party, the [[Zefençadéirs del Päts Talossan (Ventrutx)|ZPT]], which he brought back after a hiatus of ten years.

MTGA leader [[Mximo Carbonel]] will also contest the seat. He had previously ran in two elections and received write-in votes in two others. Carbonel had expressed his desire to move to his geographically correct province (Atatürk) during the previous term; this would make him ineligible to hold the seat.

The upcoming General Election will be held from November 15th to December 1st 2019/XL. All of the Cosa will be up for reelection, plus regularly scheduled Senate elections in Florencia, Maricopa and Fiova, and a special election in Cézembre.

The lone amendment that is expected to be voted on is the Still Into This Amendment, which implements the so-called 2017 Organic Law proposal.

Registered parties

Six national political parties - the most since the elections to the 49th Cosa, and one short of the modern record - have registered for the election:

Party Leader/Candidate Beliefs
  Awakening and Magnifying Passion (AMP) Ian Plätschisch Pragmatism, moderate monarchism, reformism
  Free Democrats of Talossa (FreeDem) Miestrâ Schivâ Progressivism, liberalism, republicanism
  Make Talossa Great Again (MTGA) Mximo Carbonel Republicanism, reformism
  New Peculiar Way (NPW) Eiric Börnatfiglheu Peculiarism, republicanism
  Peculiar Nationalist Party (PNP) Eovart Grischun Peculiarism, civic nationalism, moderate monarchism
  Zefençadéirs del Päts Talossan (ZPT) Ieremiac'h Ventrutx Monarchism, conservativism, traditionalism

Three parties are slated to return after a hiatus: the ZPT, a party that was most known in its 1998-2005 iteration, but will be revived for a second time by Ieremiac'h Ventrutx; MTGA, whose only member Mximo Carbonel had sat out the 53rd Cosa; and the New Peculiar Way, which held seats in 2013 but has largely been dormant since, only sporadically holding seats in Benito. One completely new party is expected to take part in the elections: the PNP, led by Eðo Grischun. Grischun served as the leader of the RUMP, most recently on an interim basis, but resigned from the party in the summer.

The RUMP did not register for the election for the first time since 2005. The party had contested 19 elections in a row, existing for virtually the entire post-Ben era. The party had been in decline for some time, and in the waning days of the 53rd Cosa it only had two MCs and a Senator, with two leaders (Grischun and Alexandreu Davinescu) leaving politics in the span of a month during the summer. Moderate Radicals Arise will also not run again; therefore, the two longest tenured MCs (Eovart Xhorxh and Erschéveþ da Schir) will both leave the Cosa.

The Free Democrats need a swing of 12 seats to win a majority; no party has managed to win one since 2013. AMP needs to gain 61 seats; no such swing has ever been achieved under EM200, the biggest positive swing being the RUMP's +43 in the 36th Cosa.

Timeline

Senatorial races

Half of the Senate will be up for reelection: three regularly scheduled races for full terms in Florencia, Fiovă and Maricopa, and a special election in Cézembre, where freshman Senator Thor Deyaert lost his seat by failing to vote.

Had the merger between Fiovâ and Florencia been successful, Iarneria (the name of the merged province) would have been expected to elect its first Senator, while the election for the seat of Maritiimi-Maxhestic would have also been up for election, to respect the Organic provision that three seats should be up for a full term at each General Election.

Cézembre (special)

Cézembre will elect a senator for the sixth time in the last seven general elections. Of the five Senators that held the seat since mid-2015, only Ian Anglatzara served more than six Clarks, and none actually served for a whole term:

  • Txosuè Rôibeardescù, elected in 2015 upon Glüc da Dhi's retirement, lost his seat in the coattails of a corruption scandal;
  • Anglatzara only served the two-Cosa remainder of his term;
  • the following two-Cosa term was split between a returned da Dhi, who resigned his seat to accept an appointment as Secretary of State, and Alexandreu Soleiglhfred, who declined to seek reelection in the wake of the collapse of the MRPT;
  • and Thor Deyaert lost his seat by failing to vote.

The last senator to complete a term was Glüc da Dhi, who served two whole terms and one extra Cosa between 2011 and 2015.

The seat is one of two expected to be competitive, should multiple candidates from different parties be on the ballot. The only candidate so far is Interior Minister Alexandreu Regeu of the Free Democrats, who would however be ineligible to vote before March 29th 2020 due to being a citizen for less than a year.

Florencia

Ieremiac'h Ventrutx, the incumbent, was elected in a special election to complete the remainder of Ma la Mha's term. He will run for reelection; in his special election campaign, he was elected as a write-in candidate (no other name actually appeared on the ballot, in a first for Talossa since Reunision). Ventrutx is also running with his own party, the ZPT, which he brought back after a hiatus of ten years.

AMP has announced that Breneir Itravilatx, a former Foreign Minister and Senator for Maritiimi-Maxhestic between 2010 and 2011, would contest the seat. The Free Democrats will instead support Spencer Kerfoot for the seat, while also endorsing Itravilatx as a second IRV preference. Kerfoot notably led the Free Democrats's efforts in the Nimlet concerning the Fiova-Florencia merger in the summer of 2019.

MTGA leader Mximo Carbonel will also contest the seat. He had previously ran in two elections and received write-in votes in two others. Carbonel had expressed his desire to move to his geographically correct province (Atatürk) during the previous term; this would make him ineligible to hold the seat.

Incumbent: I. Ventrutx (running)

Fiova

The incumbent is Gödafrïeu Válcadác'h, currently the third longest tenured Senator, who had served as Lord President (Mençei) of the Senate in 2018 and is well known as the long-time Royal Archivist of Talossa. He has announced his intention to run for reelection.

No challenger has declared their intention to run. The last contested election in Fiovă was in December 2013, when the NPW's Dieter Vercáriâ took on the ZRT's Miestrâ Schivâ.

Fiovă Senate Election
Gödafrïeu Válcadác'h -
Incumbent: G. Válcadác'h (running)

Maricopa

The incumbent is Sir Cresti Siervicül, the lone senator to be affiliated with the RUMP. Siervicül has completed his first term in the Senate, which he joined in late 2017, initially as an appointee and then winning a special election to complete the rest of the term.

The seat is one of two expected to be competitive, should multiple candidates from different parties be on the ballot. Maricopa was the first province where IRV was applied to a Senate race.

The Free Democrats have announced that Foreign Minister Txoteu Davinescu, formerly of AMP, will contest the seat for a second time; he was the MRPT's candidate in 2017, where he received the second-most first votes (29%), but lost out in the final IRV round to Beneditsch Ardpresteir. Ardpresteir himself later announced he would run for the seat, setting up a rematch with Davinescu.
