Fijiloopins' campaign for the May 2021 Nubia elections
| ||||||||||
Fijiloopins' campaign for the May 2021 Nubia elections for the races of Minister of Foreign Affairs and Minister of Defence started on the 25th April 2021 and the 28th April 2021 respectively. He would first campaign on the 29th April 2021. He would go onto lose both races on the 1st May 2021.
For Minister of Foreign Affairs, Fijiloopins would be seen as the main competitor to Gorkymoo1119 and his campaign. He would run one attack advert on gorkymoo1119 after gorkymoo1119's campaign launched an attack advert on him, in which he would use one of gorkymoo1119's advert as a basis, changing the content of the text of the advert to read 'I want to abolish capitalism'.
For Minister of Defence, Fijiloopins would be seen as a strong competitor due to the lack of a clear front-runner in the race. He would use the same adverts for Minister of Defence as he did for the Minister of Foreign Affairs race, including his policies saying that he would like to make 'every Nubian safe'.
Despite being of high recognition to the Nubian population, Fijiloopins would go onto lose both elections. In the Minister of Foreign Affairs race, he would lose by a landslide to gorkymoo1119, credited to gorkymoo1119's high name recognition and being the incumbent. In the Minister of Defence race, he would come in second to StarKiller1744, who had been predicted to win the race. He would later say that he would've been able to win the race for Minster of Defence had he focused on it more.
Background
As an incumbent, Fijiloopins would be the subject of some speculation about running in the race, especially for re-election. He would go onto express interest in running, however without specifying a race.
Campaign
Registration for election
Fijiloopins would register to run in 2 elections, firstly the Minister of Foreign Affairs on the 25th April 2021 and then secondly the race for Minister of Defence on the 28th April 2021.
Registration for the Minister of Foreign Affairs race
Fijiloopins would register to run for the race of Minister of Foreign Affairs on the 25th April 2021, as a joke. He would say that he registered to run against gorkymoo1119, who had previously won after running uncontested. He would inspire a mass registration of candidates in the Minister of Foreign Affairs race as a joke.
Registration for the Minister of Defence race
On the 28th April 2021, Fijiloopins would register to run for Minister of Defence in an attempt to be elected somehow, as he did not see himself winning the Minister of Foreign Affairs race.
Jewygate
Fijiloopins would find himself amid scandal after publishing a screenshot showing TheRealJewy calling Fijiloopins his friend, which was used by the campaign of gorkymoo1119 to suggest that Fijiloopins couldn't be trusted.
Attack advert
Fijiloopins would run one attack advert on gorkymoo1119, as a result of gorkymoo1119's campaign attacking him politically via an attack advert and other means.
Other adverts
Fijiloopins would publish 3 different adverts over the course of his campaign, with two being focused on his policies for each position if elected and the third being his attack.
Aftermath
Fijiloopins would lose both elections on the 1st May 2021, with gorkymoo1119 being elected Minister of Foreign Affairs and StarKiller1744 elected Minister of Defence. He would claim his loss in Minister of Defence was due to him giving attention to his campaign for Minister of Foreign Affairs as well, and that he would've won the race had he focused on the Minister of Defence position.
