The Federal Elections Commission is reporting that this election had a turnout rate of 52.3%, the lowest in the last 25 years of the Federation. The drop in voters is attributed to low motivation among many voters, especially those in the SDLA base and other SDLA-supporting constituencies.
The Social Democratic & Liberal Alliance lost significant support among the vast swaths of moderates and independents that brought them to power in 1703. In polling and interviews, voters registered the constant changes in leadership, lack of decisive action on the Vanic insurgency in Lyrica, and the developing economic recession at home. The rise of the Federal Consensus Party has also led to a mass departure of voters and support from the SDLA.
