Gaduridan legislative election, 3679

A snap election took place in Gaduridos in February 3679 to elect the 250 members of the Gaduridan Congress. The Congress is the supreme legislative assembly of the country. Since the politics of Gaduridos take place within the frames of a parliamentary system, Congress is independent from the country's head of state, while it controls the federal cabinet, and the Prime Minister. Furthermore, the President of the Federal Union, the country's head of state, is elected separately from, but on the same date as Congress.

Background
Following the last elections in 3674, the Conservative Party of Gaduridos had formed a minority government. The leftist parties Progressive Workers of Gaduridos and Labor United had consistently been incapable of reaching a coalition agreement. When, in 3678, Labor United dissolved, Conservatives started to repeal law. Finally an agreement was reached between all the parties : snap elections would be held if a mandatory debate period of 6 months was instaurated. All parties agreed.
