September 2025 general election
Elections for all 251 seats in the Republican National Assembly and for the President of the Republic were held on September 14, 2025. They were the first held under the new constitution enacted on August 31, and the first democratic elections held after the July Coup. In the Presidential elections, the Forward Party nominated Prime Minister Joe Biden’s Husband, while the Minister of Records, William F. Galvin, left the party to run as an independent candidate. The DPP nominated Michelle Wu. In the Presidential election, independent candidate William F. Galvin narrowly defeated Michelle Wu and Joe Biden’s Husband and became President after running on a centrist and technocratic platform. In the parliamentary election, each party ran on their own list. The ruling Forward Party won the election, earning around 30% and 82 seats, and was given the first mandate to form a government. The Democratic Progressive Party won second place, with 22% and 62 seats. The constitutional bloc, led by FWD along with the KMT, MO-U, and R, won a combined 141 seats, gaining a majority over the anti-constitutional bloc (DPP, MO-FR, OP, AfD, RPRL), which won 110 seats. A coalition led by the Forward Party and including the Kuomintang and Momentum-Unity was formed.

Presidential campaign
The Presidential campaign season began a couple weeks before the election. One of the first candidates to declare was Joe Biden's Husband, who had been interim Prime Minister since the July coup. The main opposition party, the DPP, decided not to nominate its popular party leader, former Prime Minister Tsai Ing-wen. Instead, they nominated mayor of Republic City Michelle Wu. JBH ran a campaign that was seen as unenthusiastic, with people not believing him to be very charismatic.[1] He heavily leaned into the government's successful implementation of the new constitution and implementation of the new "Future Records" system. Wu campaigned as a fierce opponent of the regime, which helped coalesce the anti-constitution vote around his candidacy. A wrench was thrown into the mix when Minister of Records William F. Galvin resigned from the Forward Party and from his cabinet portfolio in order to launch an independent candidacy. He heavily campaigned on being a moderate who could bridge the gaps between the two increasingly polarized camps. He faced multiple assassination attempts, which he defeated using his lazers, causing several million casualties. His campaign was seen as refreshingly positive, with him barely mentioning his opponents, much less attacking them. Polling leading up to the election showed an essentially tied 3 way race, with Galvin narrowly ahead. In the final days of the campaign, Galvin was appointed leader of Burkina Faso in a military coup which he had no involvement in. However, the new junta was overthrown in a counter-coup before he could get to Burkina Faso. In the end, JBH narrowly won the first count. However, as counting progressed, all three candidates led at different points throughout election night. Hours into counting, Elections Moldova declared Galvin the winner after Wu was eliminated, with her voters overwhelmingly ranking Galvin above JBH. In the aftermath, the FWD Executive Council removed JBH as party leader for his failure to win the election, and Abu Muhammad al-Julani won the subsequent leadership election.
