Revision as of 18:18, 27 April 2017

The Mercury general election of 2016 was held in June 2016 to elect the third Mercurian Parliament. Voting took place in 300 constituencies, each electing one representative, using the instant-runoff voting system.

Overview

This was the first general election since Mercury's claims of North Antarctica and Qavaqaqqaqqaniitqeqertaq. The National Party had formed a coalition with the Livingston Democrats following the Southern Territories by-election, 2015. Three parties contested 293 out of the 300 seats, excluding those of the Speaker, Deputy Speaker, three seats in Qavaqaqqaqqaniitqeqertaq and two seats in Lucerne. Independent England, led by Angela Pike, were seeking to increase their majority of seats in Nova England, following the aftermath of the 2014 Witan election, when four parties formed a coalition in order to stop her party from leading the house.
