=== Governor ===
===Secret ballot ===
The Governor of Cascadia was elected by First-past-the-post (FPTP) voting due to only two candidates being on the ballot. In this system, voters cast a single vote for a single candidate, and whichever candidate gets the most votes after the voting period has ended, they are elected governor. The voting period lasts for roughly twenty four hours. Voters may mark only one candidate.

Members of the House of Representatives were elected by score voting from 4 constituencies with three seats. In this system, voters give each candidate a score, the scores are added (or averaged), and the candidate with the highest total is elected. The voting period lasts for roughly twenty four hours.
The Governor of Cascadia was elected by [[First-Past-the-Post|plurality]] due to only two candidates being on the ballot.

The voting period lasted for roughly twenty four hours. Voters were only allowed to mark one candidate. Candidates for governor ran on a ticket with candidates for lieutenant governor, and were jointly elected.


==== Electoral boundaries ====
===House of Representatives===
Interim Governor SayerQT issued the Decree of Electoral Law, in which the borders of districts in the House of Representatives as well as seat magnitude were issued for the following election.
Following the enactment of the Representation of the People Act of August 2022, these were the first elections in which members of the House of Representatives were elected using proportional representation by means of the [[Single Transferable Vote]]. Members of the House of Representatives were elected by single transferable vote (STV) from 3 constituencies with four seats eached. In this system, voters completed a closed ballot on google forms, numbering candidates 1, 2, 3, etc. in order of their preference. The voting period lasts for roughly twenty four hours, however this may be a tiny bit more. Voters may mark as many or as few preferences as they wish. Each ballot is initially credited to its first-preference candidate but may be transferred on later counts to the next available preference where the first preference candidate is elected or eliminated.  


=== Chief Judge ===
====Electoral boundary changes====
The Chief Judge of Cascadia was elected by First-past-the-post (FPTP) voting due to four candidates being on the ballot. In this system, voters cast a single vote for a single candidate, and whichever candidate gets the most votes after the voting period has ended, they are elected chief judge. The voting period lasts for roughly twenty four hours. Voters may mark only one candidate.
The House Standing Committee on Apportionment, which was created by an act of the Legislature to propose changes to electoral district boundaries, convened in early September 2022 with ViolentVampire as Chair. The Committee made recommendations on changes to constituency boundaries due to monthly changes in population, influence, and activity.  


== Gubernatorial election ==
The Committee's report abolished the [[Northwest (Cascadian House constituency)|Northwest constituency]], which had centered on the city of Victoria, and merged it with the Salish constituency. The Salish constituency lost any land east of the Puget Sound, consisting of Seattle, which was transferred to a new constituency. This new constituency was an expansion of the [[Olympia (Cascadian House constituency)|Olympia Constituency]] to include more of the newly developing Seattle, and was named "Rainier". Frontier remained unchanged, however received territory on the outskirts of the Northwest constituency, such as the town of Hope Island.


=== Gubernatorial candidates ===
The changes were unanimously adopted by the House.

=== Campaign ===
===Campaign===
Applications were opened on August 13. ToasterBurnt was the first to announce their candidacy. ImLitten of Helena also announced their candidacy, but their application was invalid since they did not choose their [[Cabinet of Cascadia|Executive Council]]. [[SayerQT]] announced her candidacy, stating that she would prioritize increasing activity and towns as much as possible, while also starting the creation of a strong cascadian government system that can provide for the towns, citizens, and mayors alike". [[ViolentVampire]] was the last to announce his candidacy. This candidacy however was seen as mostly as a shitpost, as it only consisted a part of Palpatine's [https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Declaration_of_a_New_Order Declaration of a New Order], as well as his Executive Council picks being only himself. In the end, SayerQT and ToasterBurnt were the only valid candidates for this election.
The campaign was largely uncontested. ViolentVampire had unified support across much of the nation, and PavTheYT's candidacy was not seen as very serious. PavTheYT, after all, was a strong supporter of ViolentVampire and of Governor SayerQT. ViolentVampire did not personally campaign during this election, as he was expected to win a substantial landslide. Vamp received the support of outgoing governor SayerQT, who was his running mate, as well as outgoing lieutenant governor [[EstiQT]].

General elections were held in Cascadia on September 17, 2022 to elect the Governor of Cascadia and all twelve seats in the House of Representatives for one-month terms. This was the second monthly general election in Cascadia. ViolentVampire and SayerQT 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 proportional representation by means of ranked choice voting.

Incumbent Governor SayerQT 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 be the next-to-last election held while Cascadia was a member state of the United States of America (2022), of which the election coincided with the third and final U.S. presidential election that Cascadia would participate in.

Electoral system

Secret ballot

These were the first elections in Cascadia in which secret ballot via electronic form was utilized, instead of a public vote on Discord which was utilized in the inaugural August elections.

Governor

The Governor of Cascadia was elected by plurality due to only two candidates being on the ballot. In this system, voters cast a single vote for a single candidate, and whichever candidate received the most votes after the voting period ended was elected governor. The voting period lasted for roughly twenty four hours. Voters were only allowed to mark one candidate. Candidates for governor ran on a ticket with candidates for lieutenant governor, and were jointly elected.

House of Representatives

Following the enactment of the Representation of the People Act of August 2022, these were the first elections in which members of the House of Representatives were elected using proportional representation by means of the Single Transferable Vote. Members of the House of Representatives were elected by single transferable vote (STV) from 3 constituencies with four seats eached. In this system, voters completed a closed ballot on google forms, numbering candidates 1, 2, 3, etc. in order of their preference. The voting period lasts for roughly twenty four hours, however this may be a tiny bit more. Voters may mark as many or as few preferences as they wish. Each ballot is initially credited to its first-preference candidate but may be transferred on later counts to the next available preference where the first preference candidate is elected or eliminated.

Electoral boundary changes

The House Standing Committee on Apportionment, which was created by an act of the Legislature to propose changes to electoral district boundaries, convened in early September 2022 with ViolentVampire as Chair. The Committee made recommendations on changes to constituency boundaries due to monthly changes in population, influence, and activity.

The Committee's report abolished the Northwest constituency, which had centered on the city of Victoria, and merged it with the Salish constituency. The Salish constituency lost any land east of the Puget Sound, consisting of Seattle, which was transferred to a new constituency. This new constituency was an expansion of the Olympia Constituency to include more of the newly developing Seattle, and was named "Rainier". Frontier remained unchanged, however received territory on the outskirts of the Northwest constituency, such as the town of Hope Island.

The changes were unanimously adopted by the House.
