2407 Empherias general election

The 2407 Empherias general election was held on 1 May 2407, to elect 600 members to the Empherias House of Parliament. It resulted in the incumbent Populist party being re-elected with a plurality, short 24 seats of a majority. Every party that had seats in the previous 2402 election lost seats in this election except for the Socialists, who recorded an increase of 82 seats - a drastic upshift which began it's rivalry with the Populists to become the country's primary left-wing party. Prime Minister Felix D'laminet was re-elected for a third term.

Background
Triggered by the Prime Minister because the current parliament had been in session for five years. As per the Empheri constitution, an election must called by at least the last day of a period of five years, plus a six week campaign period. Therefore on 17 March 2407, just 11 days before legally required, the Prime Minister officially called for new elections to take place on 1 May 2407.
