This was the second monthly general election in [[Aurora:Cascadia|Cascadia]]. [[ViolentVampire]] and [[Sayerleft#Sayerleft on Terra Aurora|Sayerleft]] were elected as the 2nd Governor and Lieutenant Governor of Cascadia. This was the second of three elections in Cascadia to not be held on the third Sunday of a month, and was the first election in Cascadia to utilize [[Nonpartisan proportionality|proportional representation]] by means of ranked choice voting. | ||
Incumbent Governor [[ | Incumbent Governor [[Sayerleft]] did not stand for re-election. The gubernatorial election resulted in a victory for incumbent Treasurer [[ViolentVampire]], receiving a record 95.2% of the vote. Voter turnout was down slightly at 46.7% of eligible voters. The House elections resulted in incumbents winning just half of the seats, with incumbents winning just around 52% of first-preference votes. This would be the last election held in Cascadia under the Crown of New Mexico, as Cascadia would separate all ties from the Crown of New Mexico on September 29, 2022. It would also be the last election held while Cascadia was a member state of the United States of America (2022), with Cascadia participating in its last U.S. presidential election. | ||
