651 Kodiak General Election

The 651 General Election was held on 06 February 2023, with campaigning beginning on 24 January 2023. Incumbent Chancellor John Edwards (KWP) did not feel he had the energy to complete a second term and did not run for re-election. President Patrick Barber (KWP) did not seek re-election. Klaus Mikaelson of the KWP was the only candidate to declare as a candidate for President. Charlotte Groves of the KWP and Simon Kalimeno of the NUP declared as candidates for Chancellor. Chief Justice Martang Eðeltreow lodged his intention to remain midway through the campaign season.

The previous term was notable in the near total domination of the assembly by the KWP and leftist-sympathetic members. While a pro-business tax bill was barely passed midway through the term, social spending was a major topic for the entire term.

The election ran for three days and was certified by the Public Service.
