TITULIA CITY (TNC Politics) | President Dennis McVicker (Lib) was defeated by SDP Leader Will Wilberforce in a landslide. Both ran unenthusiastic campaigns, and voting was low at approximately 1% (13 votes total). Mr. McVicker only garnered 3 votes (23%) to President-Elect Wilberforce’s 10 votes (77%).
Low turnout from the LRP and RNC were likely a key factor in Mr. McVicker’s defeat. Mr. McVicker won the previous election thanks to their support.
On the final day of campaigning, LRP Leader TJ Norton announced it had also decided not to endorse a candidate, giving the incumbent a major blow to his administration.
Mr. Wilberforce was largely absent from the campaign, as well as his opponent.
It remains to see if Mr. Wilberforce will continue an inactive government as the outgoing one has.
