The 1693 elections for the 1st National Assembly of Klaasiya were the first elections to be held in Klaasiya since the collapse of the second democratic era, and the first elections to be held since the 1983 Northern Klaasiyan elections for the House of Deputies. The election was held on 5 Sonnuber 1693 to elect 100 members of the National Assembly.

Election campaign

As a result of the newly passed Constitution and reorganisation of government, most political parties since the second democratic era were rebranded to a varying degree.

Reorganizations of political parties between the 2nd & 3rd Democratic Eras of Klaasiya
2st Democratic Era Party Name 3nd Democratic Era Party Name Footnotes
Democratic Party Democratic Party While the party continued to exist, sizeable chunks of it split off to the Workers' Parties United and the Free Juice and Bagels Party. A proportion of those defections were offset by the Liberal Party's merger into the new Democratic Party.
National Bovic Party Free Juice and Bagels Party (Klaasiya)
Centre Party Disbanded
Liberal Party Democratic Party The liberals, finding it harder to compete for seats in a much smaller legislature, and fearful of splitting the centre-left and liberal vote, disbanded their party, merging into the Democratic party.
Republican Party Nationalist & Humanist Party
Loyalist League Tapferite Supremacist Party
Did not exist Workers' Parties United

The campaign of 1693 was largely conducted in an atmosphere of discontent and resentment across the general public of Klaasiya. A poll conducted by the National Association of Pollsters found that 73% of Klaasiyans were critical or deepy critical of the collapse of government that had preceded the new Constitution and elections. The Democratic Party, releasing its manifesto in its Borders Bay stronghold, campaigned on its record in governance some 10-13 years ago, which was largely seen as a successful period during the construction of the 2nd Democratic Era.

The Nationalist & Humanist Party's sticker for the 1693 campaign.

The Nationalist & Humanist Party of Klaasiya, rebranded from the old Republicans under Umen Saryaan, ran a difficult campaign, failing to explain Klaasiya's demise under their rule, and often stumbling and creating gaffes. The former Governor Saryaan himself issued a "complete and unequivocal apology over our role in the government collapse", while other prominent party members fought the assumption that it is their government's conduct that caused the troubles.

The Free Juice and Bagels Party popular 3-point election pledges

This prompted Saryaan to have to explain there are "differing streams of thought" within the party, which was unable to achieve any rise in the polls following those remarks in early 1693.

Within days of the Free Juice and Bagels Party's 3-point election leaflet publication, the tone of the campaign shifted towards the party's increasingly popular promises. Polls consistently showed improvements for the FJBP's support among the electorate, amid the Nationalist & Humanist Party's internal conflicts. The 1693 campaign marked the first instance in which Geroika Sunoak, a former Democratic Progressive now leading the FJBP, openly discussed the prospect of running for the Klaasiyan Presidency and governing "alongside a strong FJBP-led National Assembly".

The smaller Tapferite Supremacist Party and Workers' Parties United did not feature broadly in the 1693 election, with neither of them ever polling consistently over the 10% mark. Nevertheless, this was the first election in which TSP candidates were on the ballot in over 20 years, which some pollsters contributed to the radicalisation of the Loyalist League's more moderate stances during the Second Democratic Era.

Opinion Polling

In the weeks and days leading up to the election, several pollsters conducted opinion polls on the parties' relative strengths and popularity.
