The December 2020 Nubia elections are the ongoing elections for Minister positions in the nation of Nubia and the Second Nubian Empire. The elections are expected to start on the 30th of November and finish on the 1st of December.

Prior to this election, the November 2020 elections had elected the same Ministers as those elected in the October elections. Some minor uproar about these results came due to the population changing, however this was minimal.

Much fighting came in the elections regarding the campaign of Wandering_Hero, with many endorsing voting against Wandering_Hero for any position in government.

Background

The Nubian elections take place monthly, with around 3 individuals running for each positions usually. In the elections prior, candidates Thee_Boss, StarKiller1744 and gorkymoo1119 had won landslide victories in first choice votes, and all Ministers elected in October 2020 were re-elected.

In the elections prior, little attempts were made for changing the candidates in the running due to the Nubian population feeling, for the most part, they had served their jobs well.

Major issues included the dispute over Nubian Arabia with Yemen, as a result of the Yemenis returning to the server after a period of inactivity, causing a minor decrease in relations between Nubia and Yemen. This issue concerned mostly the ministries of Municipal Development and Foreign Affairs, with the Nubians responding with the creation of Asir.

Another issue was regarding the recent large decrease in population, which had mostly seen another increase during late November as a result of the Nubians getting on their feet once more in recruiting. The Nubian nation was pushed to /n list 1.

The Sudanese Rebellion was also a concern for the Nubian population prior, with the concern Sudan may make a comeback. Due to conflicting activity times, little fighting had happened, with occasional fights such as the Siege of Dharug when possible.

Campaign

Background

In the two elections prior to the elections for December 2020, the same group of people had remained elected. The Minister of Municipal Development, gorkymoo1119 had also held that position for 5 elections, since the 2nd of July. StarKiller1744 had also held been elected Minister of Defence in 5 elections, however resigned midway through his August term after an impeachment inquiry was launched on him.

In the past month of Nubian government, several Ministers pulled back their affiliations to certain Nubian citizens. However, much political affiliation was gained after the founding of the Darya Pact, with endorsements being handed out for positions there.

Debate

On the 28th of November, twomoo1119, as Nubian Emperor, announced a planned debate about 3 and a half hours after the announcement (2am UTC on the 29th of November). Many candidates had pushed for this due to the success of it in the month prior's elections.

The announcement had 5 questions planned listed below, along with twomoo1119 saying there may be follow up questions:

1. What will you do as minister?
2. Where do you think Nubia will be 1 month from now?
3. Who or what do you think the greatest threat to Nubia will be in the next month? How might we be able to combat it?
4. How can we better assist citizens of the Nubian Empire living outside of Nubia proper?
5. What do you believe the "next step" for Nubia should be?
