[edit] Outcome
The revival of the Industrialist Party in its incarnation the KNSP has shaken up Kanjoran politics for the first time in more than a decade. Following the surge of nationalism after the confrontation with Solentia, and memories of the popularity of the Industrialists, the KNSP won the mainland provinces.
Kanjor with have its first Green President, the former Interior Minister Jean-Marie d'Tovalt, but the LVK fear that its ability for reform will be hindered by the KNSP.
The loss of 77 seats by the Partie Patriotique de Kanjor may be signaling a change of heart from the Kanjoran public, after many decades of strong PPK electoral showings.
