Gaduridos General Election, August 3980

The 3980 Gaduridos General Elections were held in August, with all 750 seats in the Senate up for election. There was a 75.17% voter turnout.

The election saw a challenge to the complete control of the Social Democrats that had been held since 3977: a sizable portion going to the Conservative Union; however, the Social Democrats kept their power within the Senate. The election also saw the entry of the Partito Monarchico, though they failed to make any electoral impact.

Aftermath
Though the Conservative Union had taken nearly seven dozen seats, the Social Democrats maintained their supermajority, which ensured any policy they desired in the Senate would pass through.

Although the Partito Monarchico performed poorly in the general elections, they performed well in the presidential race that same year, with the victory of their candidate Alfredo Gentile. However, disagreements between the Social Democratic Senate and President Gentile over the Deltarian Crisis would cause a vote of no confidence and new elections three months later.
