====Electoral boundary changes====
====Electoral boundary changes====
The Electoral Commission convened on the evening of February 11 and in the morning of February 12, with [[Chief Justice of Cascadia|Chief Justice]] [[SayerQT]] as chair, and saw significant debate as to whether the names of the constituencies should be radically altered. [[Speaker of the Cascadia House of Representatives|Speaker of the House]] Raptormm4 proposed a plan that would change the name of the Southern constituency to "Sierra", Eastern to "Frontier", Northern to "Great North", and Western to "Metropolitan". This plan passed the Commission 3-2, over the criticism of Chief Justice SayerQT and Vice President Rocksthunder. However, when it was brought to a vote in the House of Representatives that evening, it was voted down by a large margin. Because of this, in a 4-1 decision, the Commission voted to propose a plan keeping most of the names besides Western, which would be changed to Metropolitan. The Commission also made recommendations on changes to constituency boundaries due to monthly changes in population, influence, and activity, by moving significant portions of Eastern Washington and Idaho out of the former Western constituency and into the Eastern constituency, as well as moving the City of Vancouver and the Greater Victoria area out of the Northern constituency and into the new Metropolitan constituency. This plan passed the House of Representatives with just Speaker Raptormm4 voting against it. These boundaries were the ones used for this legislative election.

==Campaign==
|-
Applications were opened on November 7, and on that very day, former representative and Secretary of Defense PavTheYT announced his candidacy for the presidency. This candidacy however was seen as mostly as a shitpost, with their campaign announcement nearly entirely consisting of "meow". Two days later, on the ninth, President Vamp formally announced his bid for a third term. He stated in his announcement that "if the people of Cascadia decide to grant me another term my main priorities will be making our national shop one of the largest on the server, using the gold from the shop to fund new welfare programs, bringing an end to the hunter epidemic through education and military action, beautifying the region with nation wide building projects, and bringing the Cascadian community closer together with weekly events."
!List of Paper1emur's endorsements
 
|-
The campaign was mostly uneventful, due to the massive amount of support held by President Vamp following the six-hour war and the significant expansion of Cascadia that had occurred under his previous two terms in office. He also received a significant number of endorsements, compared to his opponents which received zero.

}}Before redistricting, the Frontier constituency spanned the northeast BC interior, as well as most of Eastern Washington and Oregon, including towns such as Kennewick, Bread Inc., and Avola. However, after redistricting, most of this area was redistricted into the new Central constituency, with the Frontier district being mostly just the towns in Cascadia past the rockies or in the eastern section of the Columbia Plateau. The largest settlement in the constituency was Spokane. The only incumbent who wasn't redistricted, jtwokay, ran for re-election, alongside 3 newcomers.
}}
Prior to redistricting, the Eastern constituency was largely constrained to areas east of the Rocky Mountains. However, with the Western constituency being converted into the Metropolitan constituency, many of the rural eastern areas of the Western constituency were moved into the Eastern constituency starting at this election. The largest settlement in the constituency remains Chaeronea, however many newer towns such as Yellowstone are now large settlements in the district as well, along with the newly redistricted metro area of Spokane.
 
The two incumbents in the district, Former President and incumbent Attorney General Akeboun, and incumbent House Speaker Raptormm4, ran for re-election; along with former Vice President Beamz30 also running. The district, on both the presidential and legislative level, was seen as fairly noncompetitive.

}}Central was created for the first time as an electoral division for this election, and consisted of much of what was formerly a part of the Frontier constituency. This change was made due to the population increases in the region which necessitated the creation of a standalone district for the region. The district encompassed much of the Columbia Plateau, as well as north into the BC interior. It elected 4 members to the House of Representatives in this election, with major population centers being in Freewater and Umatilla County.

|old=xHydre<br>EstiQT<br>EmpressCorgo<br>cheeseballfluffy<br>SergioTheCrafter
This election was unique due to the campaign of the “Sagebrush Bloc”, an electoral alliance of four candidates all from the so-called “Sagebrush metro”, consisting of Freewater and Umatilla County. This ticket included Ambassador, Mayor (and future president) TylenolEC, Mayor Holden66, and County Councillors Weidman555 and Frankie4SD. Their campaign was seen widely as a populist one, as all of them not being prominently active in national electoral politics before, with only Tylenol having served in any post in the national government, that being Ambassador to Asia.
|new=TBD<br>TBD<br>TBD<br>TBD
The campaign also saw other candidates not from the Sagebrush Bloc, notably two candidates for President; Mayor of Bread Inc Bachinuni, and former representative and defense secretary PavTheYT who were joined by incumbent representative Cheeseballfluffy, the only incumbent in the race.
|previous=[[January 2024 Cascadia general election|Jan 2024]]
 
|next=[[March 2024 Cascadia general election|Mar 2024]]
The result of the race was a victory for the Sagebrush Bloc, winning 3 of the 4 seats up for grabs, with just Frankie4SD losing his bid. Out of the non-sagebrush candidates, Bachinuni beat out PavTheYT and cheeseballfluffy to make it into the House, unseating the only incumbent in the race.
}}
Prior to redistricting, the Northern constituency, while covering large swaths of northern rural territory, was largely dominated by the metropolitan areas of Vancouver, Victoria, Passage Bay, Corgo's Pass, and the region of Coastal British Columbia. The redistricting process removed Vancouver and Victoria from the district, leading to less of an urban dominance of the region. Northern lost one seat in reapportionment.


TylenolEC would later go on to serve as the 3rd President of Cascadia from December 2022 to January 2023, and Bachinuni would later go on to serve as Secretary of Defense.

}}
Compared to the last election, the boundaries of South Metropolitan remained relatively unchanged, however with the number of seats allocated to the district increased from four to five. Many candidates ran to fill the open seat, as well as to contest the others, with representatives Arathorn52 and Paradox_1080 standing down for re-election. The vote resulted in a shocking loss for Secretary of Defense DaPigThatBig, which led to the pretext for Washingtonian secession from Cascadia as a part of DaPigThatBig’s espionage operation to take control of Oregon and to liberate Oregon from authoritarianism.

The race resulted in a victory for all incumbents besides Furballen, due to the number of seats for the district dropping from four to three. Falcoeur was assumed to be a shoe-in for the race, however faced a surprisingly close race, winning by a hair.

=American assembly election=
=Public advocate election=
Cascadia’s first, and only, elections to the American Assembly were held on the same date as the November 2022 Cascadia general election. All 5 seats up for grabs were contested nationwide via Single Transferable Vote. Many candidates ran, and the resulting members would serve in the first and only session of the American Assembly. The American Assembly was later disestablished prior to the scheduled next election.
